Teaches in: Business Programming Web & Mobile Design

About Me

I've spent over eight years building WordPress sites, from simple blogs to complex web applications. My passion lies in creating custom solutions that blend React.js with PHP, especially with the evolution of Gutenberg. I work daily on themes and plugins, focusing on performance and maintainability so that projects scale well.

When teaching, I start from real-world problems and walk through the code to solve them. You'll build a full Gutenberg block library step by step, covering dynamic blocks, state management, and testing. My goal is to give you practical skills that you can apply to client work or your own projects right away.
