George Nicolaou (@orionaselite) – WordPress user profile

Bio

My name is George Nicolaou and I am a Senior Software Engineer

I worked on a multitude of prestigious projects with many diverse requirements. From the development of software for the Ministry of Defense of the Republic of Cyprus, Adapting FreeMed (an EMR System), Development of web-based applications regarding EMRs and many more. I have been in significant positions such a Webmaster for Oberon Explorations Ltd., as well as served as an ICT Teacher for the Ministry of Education of the Republic of Cyprus.

I am the recipient of the award “Most Innovative Dissertation of the Year” by the Media Laboratory of the University of Cyprus and among my Honors is an MSc in Educational Technology with the highest obtainable grade.

I enjoy getting involved with all kinds of new tech and software. I am delighted being involved in Startups and ideas that may seem crazy to the rest of the world.

WordPress Origin Story

I started using WordPress in 2010. I found the platform intuitive and very easily extendable. Initially I used it mostly for personal projects. In 2012 I used WordPress for a school I was working at and in 2014 I switched to freelancing where WordPress became my daily driver.
