Team

Co-founder

Co-founded Firefly Labs and sets the direction of the lab — what gets built, what gets cut, and what standards every project is held to. Handles strategy, operations, and the long-term arc of the ecosystem.

He works on online community management and Discord applications — bots, panels, moderation, economy systems, and tooling that makes a server actually work, not just fill roles. He builds and maintains open-source projects across the lab ecosystem: Gateway Community is the community he runs, and Aurora is its bot — plus various technology contributions to other projects on the platform. He uses TypeScript, Prisma, and Discord.js daily. He likes turning community rules into product: something that scales, documents itself, and keeps running without improvisation.

Co-founder

Co-founded Firefly Labs and drives product execution across the portfolio. Builds in public, ships fast, and keeps projects grounded in real use — from prototype to production.

His background spans bots, online communities, and fintech: he usually takes a concrete problem from zero to deploy on his own, focusing on software that solves something real before it becomes a pitch. He prefers shipping early, measuring in the real world, and iterating on what broke or what was missing instead of polishing slides. At Firefly, he bridges idea and launch; outside it, he leads Accend as founder and director.

Accend is operated by Basecase, the parent company behind the product.
