Jesse Mwangi (@aquila20) – WordPress user profile

Bio

I’m a web designer and digital marketer based in Nairobi, Kenya. I have a passion for creating stunning and functional websites, and I exclusively use WordPress for all my web design projects. Since 2016, I’ve been dedicated to mastering WordPress and leveraging its power to build exceptional websites.

I’m also deeply involved in the WordPress community here in Nairobi. As part of the organizing team for WordPress Nairobi, I collaborate with fellow enthusiasts to foster learning and networking opportunities. Additionally, I’m excited to be one of the organizers for WordCamp 2024, where I contribute my expertise and enthusiasm to make the event a success.

Whether it’s designing visually appealing websites or crafting effective digital marketing strategies, I’m dedicated to helping businesses thrive online.

WordPress Origin Story

I started using WordPress accidentally in 2016. I had a web project that I was developing on Joomla and it occurred to me that WordPress was a better fit for it than Joomla. Since then almost eight years ago I have been developing websites using only WordPress.
