Speaker: Kris Howard – My Website is Old Enough to Vote – The Challenges of Maintaining a 20-year-old Website

kris-howardWe welcome Kris into the midst of our WordCamp Sydney 2016 speakers.

Kris is a veteran IT business analyst and software engineer who cut her teeth during the first dot-com boom.

She heads up engineering delivery at Canva and has worked for NineMSN, the Commonwealth Bank as well as in a range of startups.

When she’s not messing around with WordPress, she’s probably knitting or giving a tech talk.

Kris maintained a legacy site since 1996 and embarked on a 6-month project to move it over to WordPress.

Hear her talk about the migration process, the challenges she faced and of course some of the things she wished she’d known about beforehand but had to learn the hard way.
