I first met Jocelyn Mozak at WordCamp Portland in 2017. I was there primarily to network and connect with others I had only previously met online, but there were a couple of sessions which intrigued me.
One of those was Jocelyn’s Building a Profitable WP Agency. It wouldn’t normally be a topic of interest as my brand is all about content and social media marketing, but I was exploring possibilities which would allow me to focus more on my personal passions. It couldn’t hurt to listen.
By the time her talk was finished, I was impressed. I was impressed with the material presented. It was comprehensive and understandable. I was impressed with her speaking. As a speaker myself, that spoke volumes. She was comfortable, confident, and clearly passionate. She spoke to us, not at us. Her delivery was fun and she was relatable.
I had a chance to introduce myself later that afternoon. We had a great conversation and have been friends since. Over the past 2 years I have attended other talks she has given. Early this year we talked about her career, how WordPress has given so much to her, and her desire to help others in a more profound way.
When the opportunity arose this year for a keynote speaker, Jocelyn immediately came to mind.
Who is Jocelyn Mozak?
Jocelyn has over a decade of experience building, running and wrangling a 6-Figure WordPress Website Design Agency all while having two boys at home.
While her education in engineering certainly refined her technical and analytical skills, it is her passion for what she does that makes her an outstanding WordPress web designer. She is an expert in thinking outside the box and filtering out the key points amidst all the noise.
In addition to running her Agency, Jocelyn is a mentor & coach to other WordPress professionals helping them to build businesses that support the life they desire.
Her Keynote: The Gift of WordPress
In her own words:
“WordPress has come a long way from its humble beginning.
My own journey with WordPress began over 10 years ago. Seated at a park, reading the iThemes php code while my 2 boys played. Little did I know where my WordPress adventure would take me.
Maybe your experience with WordPress was similar.
You sat down at your computer one day with a dream, a vision and you installed this software called WordPress that everyone kept talking to you about. And off you went.
That is the gift of WordPress.
WordPress enters our life and we never look back.
Whether you be a blogger, freelancer, or small business owner you will discover opportunities connect and grow within the WordPress community on a global and local level and how to get the most out of your WordCamp Seattle 2019 experience.”
