SDE at Tulapi.ai — building full-stack products by day, shipping decentralized protocols and ZK-powered systems by night. Researcher, technical writer at Blok Capital detailing their DeFi wealth management protocol, and a classically trained pianist.
Engineer, researcher,
musician.
I'm a Software Development Engineer at Tulapi.ai, where I'm currently shipping on production products at the intersection of AI and full-stack engineering.
Outside of work, I live in the decentralization space. As a Technical Writer at Blok Capital, I write deep dives into the internal workings of their decentralized wealth management protocol, detailing how its on-chain architecture and DAO governance continuously evolve the ecosystem.
I've co-authored two peer-reviewed research papers, earned Snowflake badges & certifications in data engineering, and won multiple international hackathons including ETHGlobal.
When I step away from the keyboard, I'm usually at a piano — I've taught over 300 students and still believe the best engineers are the ones who make time for something completely unrelated to engineering.
