WordPress was the first CMS from which I wanted to learn more by reading its code. Before I got to know WordPress, I wanted to create my own blogging system for personal use. For that I had to learn PHP, MySQL, HTML & CSS. Today, I love building custom solutions upon WordPress and I also like creating custom Themes and Plugins that are also focused on page speed and responsiveness. I like everything that is challenging and has to do with WordPress. Some of the sites I am working or have worked on: - https://www.universalyums.com - WooCommerce site selling sweets & cookies, Headless WooCommerce implementation for Account pages, Customized WooCommerce Subscriptions integration & Checkout. - https://www.vivant.eco – integrated with Salesforce, Laravel custom development (discontinued) - https://www.stayntouch.com – Elementor site built with custom widgets and integrated with CRM - https://reviewyears.com/ - Simple filtering for submitted articles done with React - https://simplystatic.com/ - Hired to code new features for making static WordPress sites In my free time, I am always looking for something to work on. That's why I built a few plugins as well: - Simple Giveaways – host your own giveaways - Live Scores for SportsPress - enables a "live" option for managing matches to change results without page reload, for SportsPress - Change Prices with Time for WooCommerce - Pets – For Animal websites, shelters. Integrated with GiveWP for donations. - Simple Cart – Allow users to have access to their cart on any page for WooCommerce and Easy Digital Downloads - Simple Sponsorships – Complete Sponsorship solution for accepting sponsorships and displaying sponsors - Sponsors – Display sponsors I also like to teach others about WordPress Development on my site: https://www.ibenic.com.

It’s a joy to work with Igor. He communicates clearly and was very thorough to make sure he had a good overall view of the project, before he began the actual coding. This was very benificial to the end result. He delivered really fast and everything worked as agreed.
