What Can I Do For You?
I solve problems and improve efficiency. Working alone, or leading a team, no matter the task, I enjoy solving new problems and learning new skills.
01
Smart Contracts
I write secure, tested, gas-optimized EVM smart contracts using Solidity, Hardhat, and Foundry with OpenZeppelin and UUPS proxy patterns.
02
Web Applications
I build professional, responsive web applications with React, Next.js, TypeScript, and Tailwind CSS — optimized for performance and user experience.
03
Data Management
I build applications to handle complex data using GraphQL, PostgreSQL, Supabase, Firebase, and REST APIs with robust backend architectures.
04
Custom Software
I build bespoke software solutions and microservices using Docker, AWS, and modern CI/CD pipelines for scalable infrastructure.
05
AI-Powered Solutions
I build AI-powered applications using Claude Code, Cursor, and Anthropic APIs — from SaaS products to workflow automation and intelligent features.
06
Consulting
I provide consulting services for companies seeking expertise in software engineering, blockchain, AI integration, and system design.
My Skills
My 15 year career has spanned multiple industries and technologies. I have a strong background in software development, with a focus on Web3, blockchain, and AI-augmented development. I have a passion for learning and I'm always looking for new challenges.
