I am super proud to have noted as a noteworthy contributor. It is such an honour to be featured in this list with such great people.

This was a really big release for me, getting many very long standing ticket merged into core, like adding caching to WP_Query. I worked really hard on performance, even finding last minute performance issues at 1am in the morning.

Was up until 1am last night tracking down a very serious performance issue in WordPress 6.1 RC2. Finally found it with the help of @blackfireio. I was up at 8am, answering questions about it and helping out. Oh boy am I tired today. Send cookies and caffeinated drinks.
