My name is Antonio and I've been working in tech my whole life as an entrepreneur, starting and failing multiple companies in a myriad of industries. The most exciting ones were a distributed columnar analytics database built from scratch in C that ended up being 5x more cost-effective than our biggest competitor and a scalable render farm that processed 1 million images for ML applications.

My journey in crypto started in 2011 when I received my first 0.01 BTC from a balajis coursera course, but it wasn't until 2017 that I was introduced to Ethereum that I really began fiddling with dev related stuff.

I took a break from web3 in 2018 to do augmented reality and got back last year to start a web3 gaming publisher called Falco. We launched Mouse Haunt last year and this October we're releasing The Harvest.

As the co-founder & CTO of a crypto company, I am responsible for the engineering team goals and deliverables. As the core developer of the first version of our smart contracts library, I developed Solidity contracts for ERC-721 NFTs, ERC-20 tokens, whitelisted sales, and marketplaces and others. When the team grew, I was responsible for managing a team of 6 blockchain developers in the release of our v2, which was much more complex and optimized.
