WHO I AM

Passionate, Technical, Community-Driven

I’m Zeba Afia Shama — a Technical Support Engineer at WPDeveloper, home of Essential Addons for Elementor, BetterLinks, and more. My day job is solving complex WordPress problems for thousands of users, but my deeper passion is making WordPress accessible for everyone.

I hold a Master’s in Computer Science from Jahangirnagar University and a BSc in CSE from IUBAT (CGPA 3.65). I’ve built sites for brands like Gazi Tyres and worked with international freelance clients.

When I’m not debugging plugin conflicts, you’ll find me organizing Women in WordPress Dhaka meetups, mentoring contributors, or volunteering at WordCamps.
