I'm a software developer, with various experience in the industry, currently working as a backend developer in an AI-powered company. I started my career within WordPress ecosystem, but for the last couple of years I have really enjoyed working with Laravel. When able, I hope to share some of my knowledge and experiences in the form of blog posts. I'll write mostly about Laravel and other related topics.
