ABOUT ME
Senior Software Engineer @ Linus
Senior Software Engineer @ Linus

Passionate about everything tech and have been a professional software engineer for 6 years. I primarily focus on the frontend, but I've been fullstack my entire career. I've recently been focused on delivering modern scalable platforms and applications in the DeFI space using web3 tech alongside TypeScript and Python.

If you're looking for a React power user (started React in 2015) or a polyglot for general mentoring, look no further.
