WordPress Origin Story

This origin story would date to the year 2012.

I was introduced to WordPress by Mr. Nagesh Pai, who was then my professor at College. After a brief discussion of interests and sharing of information, he introduced me to a whole new universe, the WordPress Universe.

I asked him to build a site for my business, as I already owned a domain, we scheduled a meet at his home office or rather his workstation and he said to me, ” Pay attention to this, this is WordPress, this is the dashboard now go ahead and build”. It was at that moment in I realized a new love for developing websites, and holding a Bachelor’s degree in IT would be a great asset to my knowledge and personal/professional development.

While I was still a student, he offered me an internship with his start-up Coregray.com a company that built websites for Small and Medium businesses and NGOs. I was assigned projects where my roles were to maintain websites and write content along with page building. Thereafter graduating to working on WooCommerce and shop pages, and with time I was able to sharpen my skills on the platform.

After that, it was more of self-learning and self-development, where I started trying out different themes and how they functioned on various devices. I started experimenting with different plugins that were available for use and modified websites with them. Wow! what an experience it has been for me.

I sincerely would like to thank Mr. Pai for introducing me to WordPress it has helped me a lot.
