Alicia St Rose began her adventure with WordPress when a UX friend offhandedly suggested using the CMS for a mutual friend’s website. That was over 15 years ago and the adventure has turned into a torrid love affair. Now she is a freelance developer, exclusively powered by WordPress, and has yet to find a limitation in this magical piece of software.
She is the owner, principal designer and developer and WordPress Coach at WP with Heart, a small agency that employs one — so far. In addition to creating for WordPress, she provides an online one on one DIY website coaching for heart inspired entrepreneurs and content creators. She is also a Creativity and Mindshift Mentor, empowering people to kick their limitations to the curb and express themselves with unapologetic authenticity.
She has spoken at several So Cal WordCamps including WC Orange County and WCLAX. She was also co-organizer of the one and one time only WordCamp Ventura County. She currently organizes the only WordPress Meetup between Santa Cruz and Thousand Oaks called The South Central Coast WordPress Adventure Group.
Outside the WordPress realm, you can find Alicia hosting rooms in her club, Wow with Alicia, on Clubhouse and bringing virtual immersive Burning Man experiences to the Altspace platform as a member of team BRCvr.
Alicia currently lives in Santa Barbara, California with her two rambunctious cats, Oscar and Milo. She divides her time between that seaside town and Black Rock City, Nevada.
