    Bio

    I am a full-stack software engineer working on the frontend, backend and meta-automations of Openverse, sponsored by Automattic’s FFTF initiative.

    Interests

    JavaScript, TypeScript, Vue.js, Python, Django, Docker, HTML, CSS

    WordPress Origin Story

    I stared using WordPress when I was about 15, to power a small self-hosted blog where I talked about music I liked. WordPress taught me about PHP, databases and web hosting, and kickstarted my career in software development.
