As the founder of CO DIGIT and an experienced software engineer with over 15 years in web development, I specialize in creating custom WordPress solutions and leading teams to deliver high-quality digital products. My journey has been marked by a commitment to innovation, continuous learning, and mentoring others in technology.

Throughout my career, I have successfully led cross-functional teams in Agile environments, driving project success and fostering collaboration. My technical expertise spans a wide range of technologies, including PHP, Laravel, JavaScript, and React, allowing me to create high-performance applications tailored to meet diverse client needs.

In addition to my technical skills, I have a strong background in project management and web optimization, ensuring that projects are delivered on time and within budget.
