👋 Full Stack Web3 Engineer
Build | Ship | Repeat
In past lives I’ve been a management consultant, started and run a small business, and overseen multi-million dollar projects. I love building - physical or virtual - to solve tough problems that make a difference.
We’ve got an opportunity to rebuild our whole digital ecosystem, and rethink what data and ownership means. All while solving hard technical challenges. That’s why I’m in Web3. WAGMI
