About Me

I'm a WordPress Plugin Developer from Nepal, currently building core features for AffiliateX (10K+ active installs) at WPCenter. Previously at ThemeGrill, where I contributed to plugins with 100K+ combined installations.

I specialize in building Gutenberg blocks with React, Elementor widget integrations, and reliable background processing systems. My recent work includes migrating sync systems to Action Scheduler, implementing geolocation-based content, and securing REST API endpoints.
