By day, David Artiss works as a Support Lead at WordPress VIP. His thirty five years of experience in IT support roles has given him the chance to cultivate the art of truly taking care of people and writing so anyone can understand.
David has been active in the WordPress community since 2007, first as a plugin author, then as a speaker and volunteer at various WordCamps, as well as contributing to Core, Support, Documentation, Translations, and WordPress.TV. Neurodiverse, he often talks on this subject, or on inclusion more generally.
By night, David has performed in 18 musicals and concerts, so is no stranger to the stage. He writes, in a journalistic capacity, for various technology sites and has appeared, multiple times, on a popular UK tech podcast. He lives in Nottingham, England, with his wife, teenage daughter, and a room full of Lego and comic books.
