Disruptive Until It’s Not

I’m Spanish, so football was always present in my life, but I never became a fan. I understood its significance to those around me, as it was more than just a game; it represented tradition, loyalty, and community. However, I never felt that same sense of belonging that others did.

Build a WordPress theme without ever opening Figma

Two years ago, building a professional WordPress theme meant bouncing between design tools, code editors, and the browser.
