about me
Since 2015, I've built full-stack web applications for the fintech space-specializing in banking, credit-card, and mobile-payment solutions for startups. Today, I'm leveraging AI to accelerate usable product delivery.
My journey started with a computer engineering degree, but the real education came from building products in the fintech startup ecosystem. From developing cross-selling features for Visa Titanium acquisition to leading API design for payment systems serving 75M users, I've consistently focused on creating scalable, robust solutions that drive business growth.
As a consultant through my brand Provoos, I now advise companies on achieving strong product-market fit while building AI-agent infrastructure platforms. My experience spans from early-stage startups to major accelerators like Y Combinator S24 and HF0, always focusing on the intersection of AI, fintech, and scalable technology solutions.
