I specialize in all kinds of PHP front-end and back-end development with MVC or CMS structure. I enjoy working on all kinds of web-related projects and love learning new programming languages or framework. I believe that web development is such a fast-changing field that not a single technique can dominate the web world forever without shifting to some other new ideas every few years or even just few months. So, as a web developer, I believe that keeping myself up-to-date is the way to survive in this ever-evolving field.
