Hey y’all. My name is Brian Krogsgard, and I’m happy to be joining Range as a Junior Partner. I’m looking forward to working with the outstanding team here.

I’ve followed Range since its inception, and I’ve always loved their mentality that a small company could do big things.

So, who am I?

I graduated from Auburn University with an Industrial Engineering degree, and for a few years web development was purely a hobby for me. My first job was as a technical sales engineer in the manufacturing industry, where I got my feet wet learning the value of effectively managing customer relationships and complex projects from start to finish.

But eventually I made the leap and turned my web development hobby into my career. Today, I bring experience building websites large and small across a variety of industries. I specialize in theme and light plugin development.

I also keep a keen eye on what’s happening in the WordPress community. I run a WordPress news blog called Post Status, which helps me learn more about my craft, share what I learn, and get to know many wonderful people that make the WordPress ecosystem great.

I’m based out of Birmingham, Alabama, where I live with my wife, Erica, and our blue Great Dane, Lucy May. I organize the Birmingham WordPress Meetup Group and co-organize WordCamp Birmingham.

At Range, I’ll wear many hats, just like Sara, Pete, and Aaron. My skill set compliments theirs nicely, and I really look forward to learning from them and bringing my best efforts to the table.
