👋 I like building and learning.

I'm the founder of x23.ai - building on the frontier of AI × Web3, currently in stealth.

Over the years I’ve launched, scaled, and iterated on a range of products and experiments — from an Apple-featured app with millions of downloads to multiple open-sourced experiments and tools .

In web3/crypto, I was the 4th engineer at arguably the most successful DeFi protocol ($20B+ TVL) Aave, was a reviewer for Aave Grants DAO, and shipped the first mainnet collateral swap in 2020. I was also early to write and speak about dynamic bonding curves back in 2018.

I studied Comp Sci and Law, worked at Coinbase (2015), and have built multiple projects that were ideas, prototypes, or full launches (see projects list below). Further back, I was also a club DJ for 7 years 🪩 🤘

I write, experiment, and invest — but my focus is building systems, products, and teams that ship.
