WordPress Origin Story

I started my WordPress journey wayback in 2015 though with little effort where I then gave up until I resume officially in 2020 with full energy and that’s when I founded my blog, Urban Magazine.
Since 2020 up to now, I have worked on numbers of WordPress projects, participated on different WordPress events and also trained very many people on WordPress development.
