Bio

I hail from Ardèche, France and I’m currently CTO at Whodunit, the #1 French WordPress agency in term of open-source contribution to WordPress.

I’m a WordPress Core developer and one of the two WP Core Team reps.

I’m currently WordPress 5.5 Accessibility Focus Lead.

WordPress Origin Story

I’m using WordPress since version 2.1 “Ella”, with love.
I became French General Translation Editor of WP in 2017. I am also Widgets and Menus components maintainer since few years.

I served as WordPress Accessibility team rep over the last 2 years, took the role of release lead on half a dozen of minor releases, and helped as focus lead on WP 5.3 (accessibility lead), WP 5.4 (documentation coordinator) and now on WP 5.5 (accessibility lead).

When I’m not contributing to WordPress, I love to listen over and over to the same good ole Neil Young songs, learn new cool diabolo tricks and to practice bouldering.

Can’t wait to meet you at the next WordCamp!
