Travis Hoglund Interview

Travis Hoglund
Travis Hoglund is speaking on Making WordPress even more AWSome at WordCamp Minneapolis.

What inspired or motivated you to give this talk at WordCamp?

I have been working with WordPress for 7 years, and wanted to share my experience using it with AWS.

How do you “create intention” in your job, career, or life?

Always have a clear focus on your goals in life. Keep a work/life balance that is healthy and it is possible to succeed in both.

If you were a WordPress Plugin, what Plugin would you be and why?

ACF (Advanced Custom Fields) – because it is, in my opinion, the most powerful plugin on the market to make WP great for clients.

If you were not doing your current job, what profession would you be in and why?

Architecture. I decided to change professions early in my education though because of the long internship required after graduation.

What professional and/or research resource(s) can’t you live without?

Stack Overflow

About skarjune

Skarjune was a former contributor on the Make WordPress.org Marketing team, WordPress.org,Training Team, and WordCamp Minneapolis—St.Paul organizing team. Skarjune resigned as Contributor in 2019 after disagreeing one-to-one with both Matt Mullenweg and Joost de Valk over their takeover of the Communications Team without consulting team members. Some members left in addition to the former Leader cast aside, and work by the Communications and Training team was discarded by new leaders . Hopefully, new real Governance will replace Automattic at WordPress.og, which is not WordPress.com. Commercial Corporations should respect Open Source GPL.
