Another “local” guy (we consider Orlando close enough) joins the WordCamp Miami speaker ranks.

Nick Gernert @nickgernert

Nick heads up the Platform Development team for Voce/Porter Novelli, overseeing the team’s custom application development projects. Voce’s Platforms team is a WordPress VIP Services Partner that specializes in creating large-scale WordPress apps for the biggest brands in the world.

Nick started the development team with the mission of building great experiences atop powerful publishing platforms and while the mission hasn’t changed, the scale certainly has. Nick has grown what was a two-person development team in Winter Haven, Florida to a team of more than 20 distributed across the country. Throughout his years in web development Nick has had developed projects for brands such as Discovery, Prudential, Disney, Bloomberg, Honeywell, MIT, and Symantec. Nick drives the strategy behind the team’s largest projects, maintains strategic partnerships and ensures the Platforms team has everything it needs to do great work.

Stay tuned for our last speaker announcements in March!
