About Me
From research labs to production systems, I design and build distributed protocols. My work bridges academic rigor with hands-on engineering, shaped by a PhD in Distributed Systems and experience across Europe and Australia.
I am working towards the vision of an ubiquitous blockchain, applying rigorous protocol design and high-performance Rust to help bridge the gap between theoretical security and global scale.
