David’s been involved in the WordPress community for the last six years, having worked as a Freelance WordPress Developer in Brighton before starting up Pragmatic in 2012. Over the years, he’s employed local WordPress professionals (many he’s met through WordCamps!) to build his friendly, WordPress-nuts, in-house team. David co-organises the local WordUp Brighton events and when he’s not working with WordPress he can be found spending time with his family or out in the countryside cycling.
