Three decades building payments and crypto infrastructure, mostly before it was obvious.
Mobile payments in the 2000s, e-commerce at scale since 2008, enterprise Bitcoin in 2014, one of the first Ethereum Layer 2s in 2018. Most of the work is deciding without enough information, and making it hold up for the humans, the systems and the business alike. I build teams that don’t need me in the room to do it. Currently building an inheritable multi-chain assisted self-custody vault.
Outside work, you’ll usually find me with friends, on the climbing wall, at Aikido, or hunting down new music and gigs.
