Biography
I've been involved in the security ecosystem since early 2020 and since then my passion for finding interesting bugs has only grown. Over the years, I have gained exposure to many facets of DeFi and other types of smart contract infrastructure.
The list is growing, but I have expertise in the following areas of smart contract security:
- Cross-chain liquidity and messaging bridges
- Institutional credit markets
- Collaterized/undercollaterized borrowing and lending utilizing fixed or variable rates
- AMMs
- Liquid staking derivatives (LSDs)
- Collateralized crypto assets
- Portfolio management applications
- NFT marketplaces and tokenization
- Stablecoins
- Index tokens
