engineer. builder. onchain.

I work on payments, bridging, and staking at Polygon. Outside work, I ship small AI products, build agent systems, and share what actually works.

North star

Build reliable systems that help people move faster onchain and with AI by tightening prompts, context windows, token usage, and agent reliability instead of chasing hype.

How I work

  • Public by default. If it can help others and is not sensitive, it should be in-channel, not buried in DMs.
  • Direct and clear. Cut fluff, get to the ask, and respect people's time.
  • Async first for documentation and reuse. Sync when collaboration genuinely benefits.
  • Meetings need value. I should be giving value or getting value I cannot get from notes, transcript, or recording.
  • Feedback should be direct and honest. Understand the why, then help unblock.
  • Priorities: ownership and speed.

Right now

full now page

I ship small AI apps to learn in public. Build fast, see what people actually use, then make it better.

  • Excuse Me

    Simple app: give it context, get a believable excuse fast.

    Fresh launch. Now tuning tone and weird edge cases.

  • RoastMaster

    Photo roast/glaze app with auth, credits, and share loops.

    Still improving output quality and first-run flow.

  • AI systems loop

    Using these apps to sharpen prompts, context packing, and safer output behaviour.

  • Core Polygon execution

    Shipping user-facing outcomes across payments, bridging, and staking.
