Bio

I am a software engineering student at Santa Clara University. I have had the opportunity to live all over the world, and to work with people from different cultures on many projects. Over the years, I have accumulated a lot of experience in application development, website development, and specialised programs, especially in the field of blockchain. Today, I work as a freelancer in my spare time, allowing me to contribute my expertise, gain skills and work in a fast paced environment that suits me. Fuelled by a passion for exploring new different applications of technology and being curious innately I am particularly interested in the new possibilities that blockchain offers and want to pursue a career in the technology and finance sector.

Cover Image for Unlocking DeFi Profits with Cyclical Arbitrage

Unlocking DeFi Profits with Cyclical Arbitrage

Part of my internship at PyratzLabs was to engineer a cyclical arbitrage bot for DeFi.

This approach impressively expands the frontier of regular arbitrage strategies available in the conventional financial market.
