WordPress Contributions

My Story with WordPress

My WordPress journey began with the creation of a blog and evolved into a livelihood as a developer, where I earn my bread and butter using WordPress.

In 2012, I started using WordPress to create a personal blog focused on topics that piqued my interest. During that period, I hadn’t delved into crafting WordPress themes or plugins.

A couple of years later, my reintroduction to WordPress came with a fresh perspective—as a developer. Discovering its open-source nature, vibrant community of enthusiasts, and global WordCamp events, I found myself captivated. 

I wear multiple hats in the WordPress ecosystem. Beginning as a blogger, I utilized WordPress to express my ideas and passions. As my journey evolved, I transformed into a developer, crafting websites for both personal projects and clients. 

As my passion for WordPress deepened, driving me to actively contribute to the platform as an enthusiast, creating an all-rounded connection with the dynamic WordPress community.
