Full-Stack Engineer | Cloud & DevOps | Fintech/Blockchain Builder | AI-Driven Product Development

About Me

I build products from the ground up. Most of my work sits at the intersection of fintech, crypto infrastructure, and scalable web platforms. I’ve spent the last few years designing systems, leading engineering execution, and shipping software in environments where timing and reliability actually matter.

Right now, I’m leading development on Sendcoins, a crypto-based remittance platform, while also building additional systems around payments, licensing infrastructure, and platform scalability.

If you want, I can also • Add GitHub stats / contribution streak sections • Add badges • Add a header banner • Rewrite it to sound more formal or more developer-casual • Simplify it to a minimal clean version

Just tell me.
