CV

My professional experience has been as a software engineer doing remote work out of Costa Rica. Before that, I studied math and philosophy.

I’m currently studying cryptography and zero-knowledge proofs, with an eye to privacy-enabling applications. Feel free to reach out to me if you’re also interested in these things.
