He blends full-stack web skills with smart contract and backend experience from roles at Eidoo and earlier engineering positions, shipping serverless lambdas, reusable front-end libraries, and performance-optimized components. His open-source work includes modernizing WalletConnect dapp examples and a full-stack onchain app toolkit, adding WalletConnect v2, Web3Modal, Cosmos examples, GameStop Wallet integration and multi-address support. Known for being organized, methodical and detail-oriented, he pairs rapid learning with a pragmatic approach to product-quality code. Based in Plovdiv, Bulgaria, he brings hands-on cross-stack fluency and a UX-minded perspective to complex web3 integrations.
