Hi, I'm

I build startups, write code, and compose music.

Entrepreneur by trade, creator by nature.

About Me

A Little Background

I build cool stuff where tech and creativity collide.
Previously CTO at Ambios, sold my startup Streambird to MoonPay, and helped launch adventures like 0xCord and Osterus.
Columbia + JTS alum (2018).
When I'm not coding, you’ll find me jamming on instruments, composing tunes, or chasing hackathon glory.
Let’s make something awesome—and probably a little weird—together!

What I Use

Tools & Interests

Tech Stack

Building with JavaScript (and TypeScript) forever, some Python, and the occasional Solidity smart contract.

When Code Gets Too Serious

Piano, guitar, drums, hammered dulcimer — though I mostly focus on composition these days.
