Software engineer turned technical project manager.
Engineer + PM. 0+ years at Venture23. Backend developer, full-stack blockchain lead, then technical project manager.
I joined Venture23 in 2021 as a backend developer and have held four roles there since. I went from writing Node.js services, to leading full-stack blockchain work across Ethereum, ICON and Sui, to running delivery as a technical project manager.
Today I own the roadmap for the engineering team and stay hands-on with architecture and code review. Along the way I have shipped web apps, on-chain games, dApps, mobile apps and browser extensions from start to finish. I am as comfortable in a code review as in a stakeholder review.
As a kid I pulled my toys apart to find the magnets and work out how they moved. I still do that with software. I like to look closely at how a thing works, and sometimes break it.

A cross-platform self-improvement app that I design and build solo. Web, iOS, Android and a Chrome extension are all in active development. It tracks life balance across four dimensions, tags intentions as Want, Love, Must or Quit, and comes with 22 achievements and ambient soundscapes. The first version took about a week.
Technical tutorials I made in Nepali: NumPy, Hugging Face, Flutter, Shamir's Secret Sharing.
NFTs on Sui that work as AI companions inside games. Each one has its own AI personality drawn from its storyline, players sign in with zkLogin, and smart contracts upgrade the NFT as the player levels up.
A one-command starter for Tezos dApps. Run npx create-tezos-app and you get a project that compiles and deploys SmartPy contracts.
A rock paper scissors game and my CV, both built as Farcaster frames.
My final-year project: a virtual AI friend that guides people towards positivity and better mental health. An Android app in Flutter with a Python agent behind it.
