I do art & crafts. My art flows through my camera lens, while my craft shines in building performant & delightful web & cross-platform mobile app experiences with frontend engineering.
I am a Senior Software Engineer at Circle, building software that helps businesses use digital dollars and stablecoins safely at scale.
Previously, I led a high-caliber remote mobile team at Leap Wallet, an early stage web3 startup and one of the top-rated wallets in the Cosmos ecosystem, where we focused on true interchain support so users could move across blockchains with confidence.
Here are a few technologies I love working on:
React
NextJS
TypeScript & JavaScript
React Native & Expo
GraphQL
HTML5 & CSS3
