Hi, I’m Weston Ruter [ˈwɛsˌtn̩ ˈɹuːˌɾɚ]. I work at XWP, an engineering agency which works to make the open web more secure, performant, reliable, and accessible. We do this via WordPress for which I’m a core committer. Since the end of 2017 I’ve been heavily involved in the plugin for AMP. Previously most of my contributions have revolved around the Customizer, for which I’ve been a maintainer and for which I co-lead the WordPress 4.9 release to make fundamental improvements to the Customizer.
I live in Portland, Oregon with my wife and two boys. I like running, biking, and listening to NPR. Hablo español y me alegraría hablar contigo.
