Bio

I’m CMO at WPDeveloper.com, a WordPress product company, powering up more than 5 million websites. I’m also Co-founder of xCloud and Vice President of JCI Dhaka Founders.

I have organized WordCamp Dhaka 2019, WordCamp Europe 2022 & WordCamp Asia 2023 as well as contributed as Global Community Deputy in Make WordPress. I have spoken & volunteered in multiple WordCamps around the globe for the last 8 years.

Over the last few years, I have been helping businesses get results by changing the way they use digital channels. I have worked with some amazing WordPress & SAAS Product companies and helped them to grow globally.
