My name is Ian Dunn and I created this blog to cover information related to my professional life as a web developer. It contains solutions to problems I’ve run into and may need again in the future, rants on web standards and best practices, and any other random thing I feel like sharing.
I live in Seattle and work as a web engineer at 10up*, building WordPress applications for clients across government, media, and various industries.
Before that, I worked at Automattic* for 11 years, where I was sponsored to contribute to the WordPress project* full time. My primary focus was building tools to support WordCamp.org and the network of WordPress.org sites. I also contributed to WordPress Core and the WordPress Security team.
I’m a big fan of web standards and the open source movement, and I have a perfectionist streak that lends itself towards obsessing over best practices. In addition to my work at 10up, I also maintain a few open source WordPress plugins and some miscellaneous projects.
