Hi, I’m Allie
I’m an Austin-based self-taught WordPress specialist, educator, and voice actor.
A little about me
In 2014, after dropping out of theater school, I started teaching myself to code. I got her first internship in 2015, where I was introduced to WordPress.
I spoke at my first WordCamp – WordCamp Miami – in 2017. Between 2016 to 2019, I built websites and provided WordPress support independently under the name Pixel Glow Web Design. I have spent time providing plugin support at GiveWP, being a speaker ambassador for GoDaddy Pro, leading the Community team at WP Buffs, and producing digital content for MasterWP. I also started Beedia Productions LLC where I provided editing, voice-over, and production services to companies like Mattel, Automattic, Kinsta, and WP 101.
Currently I’m Chief Web Officer at Web Pro Geeks, LLC and the instructor of the WordPress Essentials course on LinkedIn Learning.
