also_a: [UI/UX designer, graphic designer, game designer, state-level athlete]I build across chains and across disciplines. Around three years in Web3, 15+ hackathons, 30+ shipped projects, and a habit of shipping things people can actually click on. I care about protocol-level correctness as much as I care about how the product feels in your hands.
