Topher DeRosia
WordPress Developer, Educator, Public Speaker, Life Coach
Profile
With over 30 years of web development experience, and 15 years focused on WordPress, I have a deep understanding of how the web works and how I can make it work for you.
I excel not only at development, but also interpersonal communication, interacting with clients with ease. My skills as a teacher and trainer make it easy for me to communicate both with tech savvy people but also those whose skills lie elsewhere.
I’m looking for roles as a product evangelist, corporate trainer, developer advocate, engineering manager, or WordPress developer.
