Some Things I've Built
Bitstop
Former CTO of Bitstop, Florida’s first Bitcoin ATM company focused on making Bitcoin simple and accessible. During this time I helped develop the architecture needed to support a network of ATM’s, grew and manage a team of 7 developers, planned and hosted Miami’s first bitcoin hackathon, deployed and manage a network of 200 Bitcoin ATMs.

HODL Wallet
HODL Wallet is a free, open-source and decentralized Bitcoin wallet that’s available for both iOS and Android. I have been involved with the project from initial idea through launch and beyond. The iOS marketplace lacked a Bitcoin focused decentralized wallet and we knew we could fill this gap with HODL. I was the lead developer of the prototype, a bitcoin-only fork of the original BRD wallet, helped transition the development to an in-house team and develop landing pages.
