About Me
Currently doing performance engineering for Reth to make it the most performant node in EVM land.
I’m passionate about building non-hierarchical systems with blockchain and distributed systems. Love building in Rust and contributing to open source 🦀 I share my thoughts on software development in my articles.
Currently diving deep into building my own arb bots.
