About me
Andrew Wilder is the founder and CEO of NerdPress, a collaborative team that provides WordPress support, optimization, and maintenance for hundreds of small businesses and independent online publishers. NerdPress became a Certified B Corporation in spring 2025, and Andrew is very excited to be attending his first Champions Retreat!
Andrew has been building, breaking, fixing, and maintaining websites since 1998, and started his first food blog β about cheesemaking! β in 2008. On his second blog, Eating Rules, he launched the October Unprocessed challenge, which inspired more than 30,000 people to build community around healthier, less-processed eating. His first career in theater lighting design instilled a deep appreciation for collaboration, a principle woven into the ethos of NerdPress ever since.
With a knack for explaining technical topics in plain English, Andrew is a frequent conference speaker and a regular on the "SEO for Bloggers" webinar series. An Eagle Scout, he lives in Santa Monica, CA with his husband Matty and their dog Harry, and serves on several local boards and commissions.
