Finding Your Way Around WordPress

WordPress is powerful software with a large, diverse community — even if you know how to use WordPress, it can be hard to know how to get started in the community! In this session, Angela will share lessons learned from one year of participation in the WordPress community, including key terminology, an overview of the teams and skills that build WordPress, and tips for cross-discipline communication, all with the goal of helping you get involved.

Angela Jin

An inveterate volunteer since 2005, Angela Jin has cultivated a passion for building strong, inclusive communities. She took this literally for some time, and worked at a commercial real estate consulting firm where she endeavored to align progressive development with community goals. It was through this role that Angela discovered WordPress, which in turn inspired her to join Automattic as a community organizer for the WordPress open source project. Originally from Seattle, Angela is currently trying out an expat life in Madrid, where she enjoys traveling, visiting museums, and eating lots of food.
