I’ve spent the last few years moving between worlds.

Web3.Blockchain.Trading.Startups.Product.AI.

Each one taught me a different part of building. Together they let me work across engineering, product and business instead of staying inside one discipline: I can read the architecture, shape the product and talk through the business case in the same meeting.

(06)AboutPersonal

Beyondthe stack.

Most of what I know, I learned by shipping. Hackathons first, then founding teams, then clients with real money on the line.

Web3 took me to Singapore and Dubai. Startups taught me how little of building is code. Working with founders taught me the rest: how to take an ambiguous problem and turn it into something people actually use.

These days the problem usually involves AI. I still prototype, still read the docs, and still get excited when a new piece of technology shows up.

LLMsDocument AIPythonTypeScriptAWS
OutcomeDocument-heavy processes restructured as automated, auditable workflows.
01 — Context

Wealth management runs on documents: statements, onboarding packs, compliance forms. Much of it was being read and re-keyed by hand.

02 — Approach

Designed AI pipelines that extract, validate and route information from financial documents, then connected them to the workflows advisers already use.
