About Me
Hi, I’m Jordan - a Web3 Engineer from the UK primarily focused on building DeFi applications in the Ethereum ecosystem. I’m current helping onchain organizations build on top of Aragon OSx.
Outside of tech, I enjoy working out, jamming out on my guitar, visiting new places and finding as many uses for my slow cooker as possible.
The best way to reach me is via email or discord.
