Champions Profile

Emili Castells, Spain

Initially trained in graphic design, I started my professional career as a Junior Web Designer in 1999 working for technology companies. I learned Flash and then used it for many years creating animated intros and websites. The arrival of ActionScript 2 sparked my interest in programming, and with AS3 I started learning about object-oriented programming, PHP, and JavaScript. With the release of the first iPhone, things began to change and I left Flash aside to focus on WordPress development. Since then, I've been working freelance for agencies until I finally found my place at Inpsyde GmbH, where I'm working as a WordPress Engineer integrating PayPal into the WooCommerce PayPal Payments plugin.

I like to spend my free time painting watercolors, trying to find those beautiful and calm landscapes where I can disconnect and enjoy a good painting session.
