Bio

I’m a WordPress theme and plugin developer, a Noteworthy Core Contributor, an entrepreneur, a husband, and a father living in Ahmedabad, India.

For fourteen years I have been building custom WordPress websites for businesses and individuals. I specialise in crafting easy-to-use backend experiences so my clients can easily manage their own websites. I often work with large corporations, universities, advertising agencies, publishers, law firms, and non-profit organizations.
