About Leonidas
Posts by Leonidas

I’ve been a member of the WordPress ecosystem for over 10 years now and prior to Yoast, I had been working with web agencies building WordPress websites and applications before getting hired by a WordPress plugin company where I started working on plugin development and eventually ended up building plugins from scratch.
And now, being able to help and enable millions of users while working on the Yoast plugins means the world to me and I’m daily feeling grateful for it.

I’m located in Greece, living that remote working life and in my free time I enjoy going to the movies or watching the NBA.
