We\u2019re thrilled Anthony will be speaking at WordCamp Sacramento 2016 on Rediscovering Theme Settings With The Customizer!<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n To help you learn even more about Anthony, we asked him to answer a few questions for us, some WordPress-related, and some others we think you’ll appreciate \ud83d\ude42 Be sure to give him a shout out on Twitter<\/a> and don\u2019t forget to use our hashtag #wcsac<\/strong>.<\/p>\n I\u2019ve gained so much from the WordPress community over the years I wanted to find a way to give back. When the call for speakers came out I decided I should present an idea and see how it goes. I’ve been doing a lot of work with the Customizer recently so I thought of the best way to present everything that I’ve been learning.<\/p>\n I first used WordPress to setup my photography portfolio around 2008. I then went to Squarespace (eh gad!) before returning to WordPress around 2011 to build the website for the photography business that I was starting with my wife. When she went back to school for graphic design I began to teach myself web development with a focus on WordPress.<\/p>\n WordPress has given me a great opportunity to teach myself web development with a great community learning and creating along with me. It has been instrumental in my own business as well as my fun projects that keep me coding every day.<\/p>\n I freelance and build custom themes for small business clients.<\/p>\n It reinforces the idea that there is always more room to learn. WordPress is always evolving especially with the multiple releases each year.<\/p>\n Oryx and Crake<\/em> by Margaret Atwood.<\/p>\n I don\u2019t eat out enough to have a favorite.<\/p>\n I recently started rewatching Futurama.<\/p>\n Photography, Homebrewing, and Tabletop\/Video Games.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Get To Know Anthony Skelton Anthony Skelton a freelance theme\/plugin developer for local small businesses and entrepreneurs.
