I build at the intersection of AI, blockchain, and full-stack engineering.

• Currently part of Gryd
• Previously Assistant System Engineer at TCS
• Focused on Rust, Solidity, TypeScript, and the Polkadot ecosystem
• Interested in cross-chain systems, DeFi infrastructure, AI agents, and developer tooling

I like building products that combine protocol-level systems with practical developer and user experiences:

• Cross-chain DeFi infrastructure on Polkadot and EVM
• AI-powered interfaces for complex blockchain workflows
• Smart contracts, verifiable compute, and on-chain/off-chain coordination
• Full-stack apps with modern TypeScript, React, and API-driven architectures

A Solidity vault built for the Polkadot Solidity Hackathon 2026 on Polkadot Hub EVM. It explores a cross-chain carry trade using XCM, minting yield-bearing vDOT on Bifrost and hedging exposure on Hydration, with XCM flows composed directly in Solidity.

Highlights: Solidity, XCM, Polkadot Hub EVM, Hardhat, React, Vite

An AI-powered DeFi strategy assistant that lets users perform swaps, bridging, lending, and cross-chain actions through natural language. It combines LLM tool calling with blockchain execution flows across multiple protocols.

Highlights: Next.js, React, TypeScript, Vercel AI SDK, wagmi, viem, LI.FI, Aave, Circle, ENS

A verifiable hackathon judging system that packages judging logic into Intelligent NFTs, uses TEE-verified compute for scoring, and stores immutable scorecards on 0G Storage for transparent and auditable evaluation.

Highlights: TypeScript, Bun, 0G Storage, 0G Compute, Ethers, INFTs

A Substrate-based proof-of-stake smart contract blockchain focused on community governance, treasury management, and decentralized proposals. I contributed to Edgeware's testnet runtime and node upgrade work, including the merged runtime and node upgrade based on polkadot-v0.9.25 pull request for the prerelease_v4.0.8 line.

Highlights: Rust, Substrate, runtime upgrades, node infrastructure, JSON-RPC migration, governance systems

An AI-powered interaction layer for the Polkadot ecosystem. I worked on agent-dot, a project built with a modern Next.js and React stack together with polkadot-api to make Polkadot workflows more accessible through a cleaner application interface.

Highlights: Next.js, React, TypeScript, Polkadot API, Tailwind CSS
