Institutional crypto operations background. Systems engineering mindset. Now researching and building at the frontier of AI and autonomous markets.
Three years across VeChain Foundation, Robinhood, and NYDIG gave me firsthand insight into where large-scale operations and digital asset rails either scale or break down.
Today my focus is on turning complex technological shifts into understandable research, video essays, and practical operating code — published across Travis Automates, Capital & Code, and AutomateOS.
