About Me

I'm serious about helping people pursue their passion.

Hey there — I’m Adam Silver.

I’m a podcasting, WordPress-loving, small-business championing dad of three who believes in building things that help people get things done — with honesty, humor, and a lot of heart.

Over the past decade, I ran a boutique web agency helping businesses and organizations get online, stay online, and grow. From strategic planning to full builds and ongoing care, I’ve worked with everyone from solopreneurs to multi-location teams — all with one goal: to make tech less scary and more useful.

I’ve also spent years contributing to the WordPress community — organizing and speaking at WordCamps across the country (Los Angeles, Raleigh, WCUS), and hosting KitchenSinkWP, a weekly podcast that blends practical advice, community insights, and the occasional dad joke for fellow WordPress professionals.

As a serial entrepreneur and a mentor through my local Chamber of Commerce, I love helping others navigate their business journeys with a little less stress and a little more clarity (coffee and laughter included). I thrive on sharing what I’ve learned across two decades in sales, marketing, operations, strategy, and startups — always aiming to bring value with compassion and a smile.

Beyond WordPress, I’ve launched several passion projects:

  • Silly Little Goals, a weekly email for folks who want to finish what they start.
  • RunAdam.Run, where I share my ultra running experiences and offer advice, coaching and all things running related. 
  • TheRunnerGuide.com, a growing resource for runners covering gear, training, travel, and tech — all from a real-world, non-elite perspective.

Born and raised in Southern California, I now call North Carolina home.

When I’m not behind the mic or deep in a project, you’ll probably find me running trails, encouraging someone to launch their own business, or chasing my next silly little idea.
