    Bio

    I’m a WordPress developer with 12+ years of experience building, maintaining, and scaling WordPress websites and plugins.

    My work focuses on custom theme and plugin development, WooCommerce customization, Gutenberg block development, and long-term site stability. I enjoy working close to WordPress core behavior using hooks, filters, REST APIs, and clean PHP architecture rather than quick fixes or heavy plugin stacks.

    Over the years, I’ve worked on blogs, business and corporate sites, membership platforms, and eCommerce stores, including high-traffic and product-based WordPress ecosystems. I care deeply about clean code, performance, security, and maintainability.

    Outside of WordPress, I also work with PHP (OOP), JavaScript (ES6+), React, MySQL, and modern development workflows using Git and CI/CD. I like fixing tricky problems, improving existing systems, and building solutions that last.

    Interests

    Open-source software, WordPress product development, performance optimization, clean code, learning new technologies, and solving tricky problems.

    WordPress Origin Story

    I started using WordPress out of curiosity and quickly fell into the habit of fixing things instead of just using them. One broken theme led to a small tweak, which turned into custom plugins, cleaner code, and a lot of late nights learning how WordPress really works. Over time, WordPress went from being a tool I used to a system I understand deeply and still enjoy working with every day.
