About
I'm a software engineer and a music enthusiast, with a soft spot for the bass and an unreasonable obsession with soundtracks. I enjoy debugging complex issues, developing open-source projects, and contributing in ways that impact a majority of the web.
I live in Varna, Bulgaria and work at Automattic as an engineering director, leading 30+ engineers shaping the future of WordPress, Gutenberg, and WooCommerce.
