ABOUT ME
Full Stack Developer with a focus and passion for WordPress
Full Stack Developer with a focus and passion for WordPress

I have been in the web development world for over two decades now, but am still just as excited and passionate about it as I was back then.

I earned a bachelor's and later master's degree in Computer Science before focusing on the area of web development. I came close to continuing my education in order to become a college professor, as after technology my second passion is teaching and mentoring people, which is why I'm excited to be part of Codementor.

Pretty much a necessity with any front end development. Though it's been eclipsed by newer frameworks in certain areas, it's still the best way to implement simple UI touches to a website or perform AJAX requests.
