Good infrastructure needs people, too.

AFI Protocol

At Chainrisk and AFI Protocol, my work crossed engineering and ecosystem development. I built infrastructure that developers and partners could use, then worked with the people who could help it reach further.

Two sides of the same work.

A core indexer could not retrieve the historical onchain data needed by the team’s simulations. I reverse-engineered the protocol from its contract structure, reconstructed the failing prices using a different initialization source, and rebuilt the core values per entry. The rebuilt indexer has run without reported bugs since.

A month-long blocker. A different way in.

I built and scaled the afi-rwaUSDi vault aggregator across Ethereum, Base, and Monad, integrating Aave, LiFi, Euler, Morpho, and Magpie. The work helped drive more than $1.1M in afiUSD volume. Alongside engineering, I sourced and closed $100M in Base and $50M in Monad ecosystem partnerships, with LP and investor introductions supporting a Proof-of-Reserve network beyond $225M.

From integrations to adoption.

My risk engineering work included Rust Monte Carlo systems for the Fuel ecosystem and lending models for Swaylend. That meant reasoning through liquidation thresholds, collateral parameters, and the behavior of a lending system under stress.

Understanding what can go wrong.

Building the infrastructure. Connecting the ecosystem. Taking a protocol from possibility to adoption.

Good infrastructure needs people, too.
