    Bio

    After working on WordPress projects for 6 years, I am now contributing to WordPress Core in order to help it be the best it can be.

    WordPress Origin Story

    After having good PHP knowledge and trying other frameworks, I found WordPress to be THE framework for me as a developer and clients thanks to the excellent CMS, updates, available plugins and themes.

    Soon I wanted to start to do more advanced things, and it was at this point I realised WordPress is so much more than a CMS. I read many eBooks written by professionals and learned to develop Multisite WordPress sites, child themes, mu-plugins, plugins, how to use hooks and filters and I just learned to love WordPress more and more.

    After contributing to core for a few months at the time of writing this (June 2020) I am thankful to those who have welcomed me and helped me contribute. I hope we can keep improving WordPress together.
