Proactive PHP/WordPress developer, more than ten years of agency experience in developing web applications for clients. My core expertise is in scalable PHP frameworks like Laravel and Symfony, with custom WordPress solutions. I love architecting clean and maintainable systems, establishing tests and CI/CD automation, and delivering security-aware, fast applications as part of fully remote teams. Similarly, mentoring junior developers, working across departments, and making sure that the technical work always aligns with what the client and business actually need.
