New Mom, New Town, New Job, and the Biggest WordPress Site of my Career

One day you’re in the back of the tour van, crisscrossing the US playing rock shows to the generation of alt-whatevers with a similar affinity for the Sonic Youth, Fugazi and Converge records that mattered. But you’ve got a laptop and WordPress to help you pay the rent as you slog to the next show. Cut to 10 years later: you’re moving to Nashville with a newborn, and restarting a career. The one constant through it all? WordPress.

Kristina will be joined by James Ellis, partner at Brooklyn-based Athletics. Together they will spin a yarn of reinvention, how WordPress has shaped their lives, and what it’s like launching a WordPress site capable of handling a terrifying 100m pageviews per month.
