Speaker Spotlight: Dave Martin
Are ready to contribute to core? Let Dave Martin show you how in his session, Contributing to WordPress core – a getting started primer. Dave’s been contributing to core (and loving every minute of it) at Automattic. “I get a kick out of designing/developing an interface used by millions of people.” Dave says. “It’s a great feeling knowing that the code you’re writing is benefiting millions of others each day.”
Contributing patches can be exhilarating, but also a tad intimidating as you’re starting out. Dave says that “By the end of the session, you’ll have all the knowledge you need to contribute to WordPress core. If you’ve ever thought about contributing to core, but for one reason or another haven’t gotten around to it, you should attend this session.”

Speaker Spotlight: Nina East
- In these times where anyone can set up their own WordPress website and overseas freelancers are undercutting rates, it’s easy to doubt whether you can charge enough or find enough clients to make a living. In Nina East’s session How to Raise Your Web Design Fees – Charge What You’re Worth and GET IT! you’ll learn the two components to having a highly successful web design business.
Nina has been coaching entrepreneurs on the ins and outs of building successful businesses for more than 12 years. “Other than helping web designers grow their business, my favorite projects are working with business owners who are just beginning to build their online presence, or make a shift in their brand.” Nina says. “ I love these projects because there’s so much room for creativity and I can bring all my other platform-building skills into the project.”
Nina’s session will focus mainly on freelance web designers and solopreneurs who are building web design businesses. “The most valuable thing attendees will get is becoming crystal clear on why they MUST raise their fees, and how easy it is to get paid what you’re worth when you can clearly articulate the value you provide and your have the client’s success in mind.” Nina says.
