Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolTieshun Roquerre is a serial founder and engineer based in San Francisco with 11 years of hands-on experience building startups from early product-market fit to exit. He founded Namebase—an on-chain domain registrar built on the Handshake DNS protocol—raising $5M, processing tens of millions in transactions, and ultimately selling to Namecheap in 2021. Earlier ventures include StrongIntro (YC-backed), and he cut his teeth as a full-time engineer at Teespring straight out of high school before attending MIT. Now leading a stealth company, he combines deep technical fluency in crypto infrastructure and product-led growth with a knack for fundraising and operationalizing novel protocols. Notably, his path includes a Thiel Fellowship and a pattern of skipping conventional schooling to accelerate real-world impact.
