Meet The Speaker: Alonso Indacochea

Alonso Indacochea

Alonso Indacochea is the CEO of 11 Online, a full service digital agency in Albuquerque, NM. At 11 Online, Alonso lives and breathes WordPress, where he and the team build, fix and maintain websites for their clients. He and his team recently launched Block Party, a Gutenberg block membership site.

We’re thrilled to have Alonso onboard as a speaker at WordCamp Sacramento 2018 asked a few questions to help you get to know more about him. Check out our mini interview with Alonso below:

What is the topic of your WordCamp talk?

How Gutenberg Will Empower WordPress End-Users And Professionals

Why do you think this is important?

Gutenberg (once merged into core and the implementation controversy dies down) will uproot the content creation experience in WordPress for the better. I’m also convinced there’s a tremendous opportunity for professionals to create WordPress sites that better serve their clients, and take advantage of this disruption.

What’s your WordPress origin story?

I went to a PHP full-stack coding bootcamp in 2015 and wanted to freelance, and found a home in the WordPress world soon thereafter.

How has WordPress impacted your world?

It allowed me to start a freelance business which has blossomed into a full-service digital agency, and which allowed us to build Block Party (wpblock.party).
