Bio

As a Senior Software Engineer, I lead and collaborate with a team of skilled developers to build and maintain high-performance web applications using WordPress, React, and PHP. My goal is to deliver exceptional solutions that meet the unique needs of clients, from small businesses to large enterprises.

With over seven years of experience in WordPress development, I have completed numerous projects across both back-end and front-end, including custom themes and plugins, e-commerce integration, and performance optimization. I’m well-versed in tools and frameworks such as Bootstrap, Elementor, WooCommerce, and Laravel, and bring strong expertise in web design, SEO, and testing to each project.

I hold a Master of Science (M.Sc.) degree in Computer Science from Shree Ramkrishna Institute of Computer Education & Applied Sciences, where I gained a solid foundation in programming, data structures, algorithms, and software engineering. I am passionate about learning new technologies and staying updated with the latest trends and best practices in web development. I am always eager to take on new challenges and collaborate with other professionals to deliver innovative and user-friendly solutions.

WordPress Origin Story

My journey with WordPress began when I was working on a small client project that needed a simple CMS. I stumbled upon WordPress and was impressed by how easy it was to set up and customize. At first, I used it just to build standard pages and blogs, but as I dug deeper, I realized how extensible the platform was. I started experimenting with custom themes, writing plugins, and working with hooks and filters.

What really drew me in was how WordPress balanced simplicity for users with power for developers. I quickly shifted my focus to WordPress full-time, building everything from eCommerce sites to membership platforms. Eventually, I moved into more technical roles, including client support and plugin development, where I could combine my technical skills with problem-solving for real users. Today, WordPress is not just a platform I work with — it’s the foundation of how I build, support, and solve challenges online.
