|
Technologist and product leader building secure digital infrastructure at the intersection of Bitcoin, finance, and open source. 11+ years shipping enterprise-scale platform products (Bloomberg, City University of Seattle), now founding mission-driven Bitcoin ventures backed by Jack Dorsey's #startsmall and MIT's Digital Currency Initiative. I care about the whole stack: the roadmap and the cloud project, the IAM policy and the landing page. If it needs to be resilient, private, and actually shipped, that's where I like to work. |
