I’ve been infatuated with computers and programming since the late 90s. I started with BASIC and found PHP in the early 2000s, learning C and C++ along the way. I’m a problem solver at heart, I thoroughly enjoy taking difficult tasks, unpacking them, and finding solutions that are practical and efficient. I'm also a small-time venture investor, technology startup mentor, ultrarunner and a long-distance running coach in my spare time. As an active member of the WordPress community since 2012, I’m involved in all levels of the project, be it contributing to the WordPress software, organizing and speaking and WordPress events, or building open-source plugins. If you have a difficult WordPress problem, and you want someone who will work with you to solve it, you’ve come to the right person.

Amazing experience working with Gennady. We had a consultation for nearly 2 hours, straight to the point and discussed in detail the issues and what I needed to accomplish for my business. I am moving to the next stage of curing the issue for my platform and business. Friendly and fun to work with. Highly recommend having a consultation with him and hiring him to excel your business.
