Hi, I’m Weston Ruter. I’ve been a WordPress core committer for over a decade, and I’m working heavily on the Core Performance Team. I was at Google for over six years and before that I worked at XWP as CTO.
I live in Portland, Oregon with my wife, two boys, and our cat. I like running, biking, public transit, linguistics, español, ASL, space exploration, Christian theology, and listening to NPR.
