Software Engineer III on a Developer Experience team. A decade in QA before that — nine years of breaking software gave me an instinct for what actually ships reliably versus what just passes a demo. The best DevEx work is invisible: engineers ship faster and don't think about why.
Outside the day job I build onchain — production smart contracts, agent identity (ERC-8004), and payments infrastructure for the agent economy on Abstract, Ethereum, and Base.
TypeScript · React · Next.js · Playwright · Solidity · Rust
| Project | What it is |
|---|---|
| ACK Protocol | Peer-driven reputation for AI agents. ERC-8004 on Abstract, Ethereum, and Base — contracts, SDK, x402-gated endpoints. |
| x402 | Payments protocol for the internet, built on HTTP. Ecosystem: lint · compliance · indexer · gateway · canary |
| etch | Permanent onchain records. Soulbound ERC-721, typed tokens, Rust MCP server. |
| qai-cli | AI-powered code review and test generation from your terminal. |
| tempo | Upload sheet music. Get tempo maps. |
A decade on snarelines — Santa Clara Vanguard, Pulse Percussion, Blue Stars — and still teaching. I learned reps, cleaning, and locking in with the line long before I learned to ship software. Same discipline, different instrument.
