I fell in love with Joomla from the moment I discovered version 1.0. It changed the way I build websites and shaped my entire professional path. Since then, Joomla has been part of every project I create, and the community has become a place that inspires and motivates me every day. I am grateful for the many amazing people I’ve met along the way and for the spirit that makes this community truly special.

My journey with Joomla began when I discovered version 1.0, and it immediately changed the way I looked at building websites. What started as curiosity quickly became a passion. Joomla opened the door to a new world of creativity, problem-solving, and collaboration. It gave me the tools not only to build better websites but to build a career.


Over the years, Joomla became more than just a CMS for me. It became a constant companion in every project I worked on, a technology I could trust, and a community that welcomed me with open arms. Through countless projects, discussions, events, and contributions, I experienced how powerful open-source collaboration can be.


Joomla shaped my professional life: I turned my passion into a business, founded my Joomla agency in 2009, and have been working with clients around the world ever since. The community gave me the confidence to grow, to share, and to give something back. That is why I became active in various Joomla teams and have supported the project for many years.


My story is deeply connected to this project: Joomla helped me grow, find my path, meet inspiring people, and be part of something bigger than myself. And even after two decades, Joomla still feels like home.
