Organizer Role: Co-Organizer, Lead Advisor

Heather Acton is the founder of Helio Interactive, a WordPress-centric digital agency in Chicago, IL, and is a self-proclaimed WordPress fanatic and WordCamp groupie. Heather has built over 50 WordPress sites in the past 4 years, most while her kids were climbing on her lap or asking her for food or a hug.

How did you get involved in WordCamp?

I organized two WordCamps (Chicago ’11 and ’12), volunteered and/or sponsored several others, and I founded and organize the WordPress Lake County Meetup.

Tell us something else about yourself:

When I’m not doing something related to the most awesome publishing tool in the world, I’m likely cuddling with my two kids, analyzing something with my husband, or drinking a craft beer at an O.A.R. concert.
