Matter Labs is pioneering zero-knowledge proofs to build ZKsync, the leading community owned ZK Rollup to scale Ethereum and fulfill its promises for a fairer and more efficient world.ZK Stack is the developer friendly modular framework powering ZKsync, that allows anyone to easily deploy interoperable ZK layer 2 blockchains on top of a common shared ecosystem. All these ZK chains can tap into the same liquidity and user base, making ‘The Elastic Chain’ one massively scalable blockchain that scales horizontally similar to the internet, but without trust assumptions. This is the most viable technology to enable the mainstream adoption of public blockchains.I am leading the team to develop the strategy, structure, & roadmap for ZK Stack, and provide devs with the resources & support they need to succeed.

I worked as a Researcher / Consultant with numerous different Blockchain companies focusing on ZK, Layer 2s, Privacy, and DAOs. I have developed a deep understanding of the challenges facing the blockchain industry and have worked on innovative solutions to overcome them. My experience in ZK protocols for decentralizing Provers & Sequencers, simple & safe bridging between fractal instances, and sharding DAPP state across multiple fractal ZK execution shards, has given me a unique perspective on how to scale and prevent liquidity fragmentation. I have also consulted on governance modules, voting mechanisms, treasury management modules, user interfaces, and tokenomics for governance tokens including value accrual to the token.

I was the Chief Web Developer (Full Stack) at Austin Hughes - one of the largest data center product manufacturers in Asia. I lead the project to fully reprogram, redesign & substantially remake www.austin-hughes.com, as well as a suite of new tools for clients & resellers.

42U Data Center Solutions is historically one of the largest data center product resellers in the US. I was in charge of managing four websites with 16,000 products, and led programming & managed redesign of multiple of the websites. 42U was later acquired by Austin Hughes and I was brought to the parent company as Chief Web Developer.

I founded a company for organizing events for International Students in Finland. We got the exclusive contract with largest event space conglomerate in Finland (which virtually has a monopoly in the country)- all International Student events in their spaces had to be organized through us.

I was the IT Admin board member of ESN FINT - the guild for all international students in Tampere. I remade www.esnfint.org, and was in charge of managing all communications, social media, digital art, etc.

I was the Company Relations board member for the IT ‘guild’ of all Tampere University IT students. I handled all the contract negotiations for the guild, organized sponsorships, learning opportunities with companies, and sponsored internships.
