I keep this website dedicated mostly to personal writing. However, there are some articles I’ve written and projects I’ve worked on professionally that I am proud of or just find particularly interesting, so this page is to share some of those.

Writing

I post articles that I write for work to my Medium page. For a deep dive into how Polkadot works, check out The Path of a Parachain Block.

I have also written extensively on the Polkadot Wiki. My major contributions there are the integration guide and comparisons with Ethereum 2 and Cosmos.

Projects

Polkadot

The main project that I work on in my day job. I also run some validator nodes. More about that on the dedicated Polkadot page. Since 2022 I have been focusing on system parachains.

Relay Chain

I used to host the Relay Chain podcast. If you want some episodes to start with, I suggest Gavin Wood, Jillian York, Shira Frank, Kirill Pimenov, and Harlo Holmes.

Sometimes I’m a guest with the new host, Jorrin. Check out the System Parachains episode from October 2022.

System Parachains

My current project (at least as of May 2021) is the development and launch of the system parachains on Polkadot. These include Statemint, Collectives, and a Bridge Hub. These are mostly contained in the Cumulus repo on Github.
