Building, Trading, Writing
About
I build software with AI in the loop. I set the bar on architecture, security and taste; the implementation is AI's job, start to finish. The rest of my time goes to onchain markets: researching, writing, and testing ideas on Photon Play, my platform for running backtests and quant research at scale.
Away from the screen, it's mostly tennis and good coffee.
