Bio

Hi! I’m Taco and yes, that really really is my given name. I’m married to the most amazing wife and proud father to two amazing daughters (2016 and 2020). Besides family life and spending time on my amazing job as a community manager at Yoast and all the things in the WordPress community, I love to ride my trials bikes and organize LAN parties (computer events).
