WordPress Origin Story

At the end of my first year as an undergrad, someone asked me to develop a website for a bookstore. So I spent that summer trying to learn technologies like HTML5, CSS3, PHP, and a couple of front-end frameworks like Bootstrap and Foundation.

After the summer was over, I was determined to grow my knowledge in web development. To achieve this goal, I started looking for freelance projects. I have always found the practical approach to be very helpful for myself.

During those days of struggle, I volunteered to be part of the Organizing Team for WordPress Week Lahore 2014. As a result, I met Ahmad Awais. Later on, I joined his company as a WordPress intern. And the rest is history.
