Founded and built a non-custodial stablecoin payments platform connecting consumer wallets, merchant acceptance, and stablecoin settlement, with end-to-end responsibility for ecosystem strategy, product architecture, commercial model, and go-to-market.

- Design and implementation of the retail stablecoin payment wallet (app.wampei.com)
- Merchant backend integration for stablecoin payments and remittances
- Mapped the value chain for high-risk merchants and supplement/nutra DTC brands, legal businesses repeatedly dropped by card processors, and architected merchant settlement that pays them direct to a wallet they own, removing dependence on the banking relationships that got them dropped
