Niels is the founder of Umbraco and remains the project’s heart and soul. Niels started Umbraco in 2002 out of necessity but has maintained it out of love and now Umbraco has a life far beyond his wildest dreams. Niels is the inspiration behind Umbraco’s community focus, its dedication to quality, and its no-compromise approach to simplicity. He can be found improving bits of core functionality as often as he can be found encouraging others to take Umbraco to its limit.

Other than spreading the Umbraco love, Niels spends time with his wife and three sons and reminisces about his days producing music with his now dust-collecting analogue synths.
