ABOUT ME
Here’s My Story
Hello, I'm Marios, a Web & WordPress developer based in Cyprus with hands-on experience crafting custom web solutions, ranging from Single-page Apps using React to designing and developing custom WordPress themes and plugins. I have a passion for coding and bringing ideas to life in the browser. As a self-taught developer, I've cultivated a solid understanding of UI/UX design principles.

Outside of work, I find joy in activities such as volleyball, cycling, and swimming. My favorite hobby is flying FPV drones, through which I capture breathtaking cinematic footage. You can view these adventures on Cyprus Drone Works, where I regularly post videos of my flights.
