I am pursuing Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE) Honors at the University of Texas at Austin, specializing in electronics and integrated circuits.
Under the guidance of Dr. Cesare Fracassi, Chief Economist at Coinbase, I conduct research in zero-knowledge proofs (zkp), quantitative finance, and Maximal Extractable Value (MEV).
I founded and spearhead TXB Labs, a student Web3 hackathon team sponsored by Coinbase's Base L2. In TXB Labs, I've taught over 15 students Solidity development and blockchain fundamentals. Furthermore, I operate validator nodes for Ethereum, Taiko, Linea, and Base.
On the software engineering side, I am shipping developer tools for improving dApp experiences, like ape-chainlist – an ApeWorX plugin for fetching RPC URLs from the CLI. In addition, I have worked as a quant analyst, designing and implementing 3 trading algorithms for perps DEXs on Arbitrum.
