Carolina Nymark (@poena) – WordPress user profile

Bio

I am a developer from Sweden, I am a core committer and bundled theme component maintainer.

I have built themes and contributed to WordPress for many years. I have completed thousands of theme reviews for the theme directory, and I was honored to be the development lead for Twenty Twenty-One and co-lead for Twenty Twenty-Five.

Formerly at Yoast.

Interests

Besides coding and design: Gaming, cross stitching and crafts, movies, tv

WordPress Origin Story

I built my first website in the 90’s because I needed a place where I could express myself freely.

That is what WordPress is for me, it helps people express themselves and own and publish content on their own terms.
