Since those behind the scenes of WordCamp mostly go unnoticed, we decided it would be a nice twist to introduce you some of this year’s crew:
Karen Howell, Registration and Swag Wrangler:
-
What do you do for a living?
I’m a founder and developer at The May Creative where I build custom themes for business owners in collaboration with designers & design agencies. I also consult helping businesses owners strategically engage online.
-
How do you use WordPress?
I use it every day to help businesses run their business as well as my own through theme creation and blogging.
-
How did you end up involved in WordCamp?
I attended last year and had such a great time within the WordPress community I decided to volunteer this year.
-
What’s your guilty pleasure/hobby/outside of work passion?
For fun I’m a beauty blogger – a maven, sharing makeup techniques and looks for women. It’s how I got started with WordPress. Plus I adore coding. It’s my hobby and career 🙂
How to get in touch with Karen:
When you see Karen at WordCamp Seattle (look for the hat) in Nov, be sure to say hello and thank her for all her hard work and time volunteering to make WordCamp 2018 the best one yet.
