Hi there, Mike here!
I've been a PHP programmer since 1999, and it's been an incredible journey watching the web evolve over the years. Starting my career at the dawn of the internet, I quickly fell in love with programming and have spent over two decades refining my skills. Throughout that time, I've had the privilege of working on a variety of projects, but the most significant has been my role as the original programmer and current Lead Developer of WishList Member ™.
As the creator and Lead Developer of WishList Member, I've watched the plugin grow into one of the most widely used membership site solutions for WordPress. It's been rewarding to see how it has helped countless site owners manage their memberships with ease. I'm passionate about ensuring that the plugin remains powerful and user-friendly, constantly adding new features and updates that keep it ahead of the curve.
In addition to WishList Member, I've developed numerous WordPress plugins, offering solutions to website owners who need tailored functionality. As a WordPress plugin developer, I've had the chance to solve complex problems and provide tools that make managing websites easier for users around the world. My background in PHP and extensive experience with WordPress has allowed me to stay flexible and innovative in my approach to development.
Leading the development team at WishList Member has been one of the most fulfilling aspects of my career. Over the years, I've had the opportunity to work with incredibly talented individuals, and together, we've built a product that's made a difference for so many people. I take great pride in fostering a collaborative environment where creativity and innovation thrive.
Despite my years of experience, I'm always looking to learn and grow. The tech world moves fast, and I believe it's important to stay curious and open to new ideas. Whether through my own development work or by mentoring others, I'm constantly exploring ways to improve and push the boundaries of what's possible with web development.
Being part of the WordPress community has been an enriching experience. By contributing to this ecosystem, I've been able to create tools that empower users to build better websites. It's gratifying to see how my work helps people achieve their goals, whether they're running a business, starting a personal blog, or building a membership site.
On the personal side, I'm a proud husband and father of four amazing kids. My family is incredibly important to me, and I've always strived to strike a balance between my professional career and my role at home. They are my biggest supporters, and their love and encouragement push me to be the best version of myself, both personally and professionally.
I'm passionate about innovation and quality in everything I do. I approach each project in life with a sense of purpose, whether it's leading my team, developing new features, or spending time with my family. I believe that the best work comes from a place of passion, and I'm grateful to be able to do what I love every day.
Yours truly,
Mike Lopez
