Web3 Gaming Pioneer | Blockchain Innovator | Aerospace Engineer

Building the future of iGaming through blockchain technology and AI integration. CEO of Savage Studio and architect of GOALPOST.GG & DRUIDAO.

The Founder's Journey

From Blue Collar to Blockchain

Started working in warehouses at 15, learning the value of hard work and systems thinking. This early foundation in operational reality shaped my pragmatic approach to building companies.

The Engineering Mind

Ocean and Mechanical Engineering at Florida Atlantic University taught me to break down complex systems and design solutions for real-world challenges. This mindset carried through to my rapid rise at Pratt & Whitney, achieving senior engineer status within five years.

The Web3 Pioneer

In 2019, I saw what others missed: blockchain technology was reaching an inflection point. I left aerospace security to build in the Solana ecosystem, becoming an original member of the prestigious DEAD KING SOCIETY and establishing myself as a recognized voice in the space.

The Vision Forward

Today, I'm building Savage Studio to set new standards for how iGaming operates—transparent, fair, and built on blockchain rails. Our USD-to-USDC conversion technology will solve compliance issues that have plagued online gaming for decades.

Current Ventures

Savage Studio

As CEO of Savage Studio (Costa Rica OpCo and Delaware HoldCo), I'm leading a team transforming the iGaming industry through blockchain technology and AI integration. We're creating the future of transparent gaming with innovative USD-to-USDC conversion technology.

GOALPOST.GG

A Web3 gaming platform that I architected and rebuilt from the ground up. When faced with subpar results, I made the difficult decision to restructure the team and infrastructure, demonstrating the decisive leadership necessary in startup environments.

DRUIDAO

A revolutionary revenue-sharing model where NFT holders receive direct percentages of Savage Studio ventures. This innovative approach showcases my belief that Web3 success requires aligned incentives between platforms and users.

Web Development

Beyond my business ventures, I'm a hands-on builder who has personally created multiple websites (druids.vip, savagestud.io, uneek.life) showcasing both technical capability and design sensibility. This hands-on approach distinguishes me from purely theoretical founders.

Personal Attributes

Eternal Optimist

"I'm eternally optimistic, not because I ignore challenges, but because I know how to build through them."

Renaissance Man

From motorcycle riding to scuba diving to coding, I pursue mastery across various domains.

Strategic Patience

I understand that timing is everything—moving fast when opportunities arise, waiting when markets need time.

Hyper Networker

I build relationships that compound, transforming connections into collaborative opportunities.

Self-Funded Builder

When faced with execution challenges, I invested my own resources rather than compromising on quality.

Execution-Focused

While others discuss theories, I build working products and solve real problems.
