About Me

Dan Hauk

Hi there, I’m Dan. I’m a product designer and front-end developer working at Automattic, the company behind WordPress.com, Jetpack, WooCommerce and many other products. I love the many pieces of creating usable interfaces and diving deep into code.

Before joining Automattic I worked for various small companies and co-founded Cucumbertown and BrewTrackr. In my spare time I’m a musician/songwriter, father, and husband. I also blog about life, travel, and parenting.
