    Bio

    With years of experience, I create custom themes, develop plugins, and build full web systems. I’m passionate about coding and always deliver high-quality work using the latest tech.

    WordPress Origin Story

    In 2008, I started with a small website, offering free themes for WordPress, BlogSpot, and Joomla. By 2010, I began creating and selling WordPress themes, which opened up new opportunities. A year later, I expanded into building plugins and contributing to open-source WordPress projects. This allowed me to take on diverse projects and grow. Now, after years of hands-on experience, I bring a wealth of knowledge and creativity to every project I take on.
