Skills & Experiences

With over eight years of experience in WordPress development and design, I’ve built a solid foundation in UX/UI design, graphic design, and web development.

As a constant learner, I actively seek out new technologies, AI tools, and software to stay on top of the rapidly evolving tech landscape. Every day presents an opportunity to grow and refine my skills. I’m inspired by Steve Jobs’ iconic mantra, “Think Different” and “Stay Hungry, Stay Foolish,” which drives me to approach challenges with both creativity and technical precision. In essence, I strive to balance my technical expertise with creative thinking, continually pushing the boundaries of what’s possible.
