My journey in software engineering began at 16 during the pandemic, driven by a vision to build robust business applications across industries like finance, commerce, and logistics.By 17, I founded Engage Digital, a solo web design studio that quickly scaled into a team of four. This operation later evolved into the Incline Team, where we transitioned from building open-source projects to operating a contracting business delivering full-stack services for enterprise clients.At 18, I transitioned into the Web3 space, joining Corebloc, a blockchain marketing agency, as a Business Developer and Partner. During my tenure, I secured early investment from international angel investors, built global strategic partnerships, and honed my skills in business development.Over the next two years, I expanded my engineering expertise through independent consulting, working on complex Next.js/React architectures for Web3 protocols, including a hackathon-winning smart governance superapp. This eventually led me to ST INNOVATIVES, where we won seed funding at the StartUp Hackathon 2023 for our Smart Governance architecture.By 20, my engineering career accelerated globally. After interning at Fit2gether (backed by Block Dojo), I was recruited by a London-based B2B SaaS startup as a Senior Frontend Developer. I also represented the Philippines as a fully-sponsored exchange student at Devcon 7 Southeast Asia, presented by the Ethereum Foundation. Through OpenVerse, I later built AI-driven developer relations tools for Silicon Valley unicorns likeOasis Protocol.Now at 21, I serve as Chief Technology Officer at ElectrifAI PH, a high-growth startup where we recently raised PHP 2.3M in pre-seed funding. I continue to lead Martinsoft, providing high-level consulting that bridges AI, scalable software engineering, and emerging tech.In 2025, my focus has shifted heavily into high finance and quantitative research. I was selected as a delegate for the JPMorganChase FYF Operations Program(1 of 46 from 956+ applicants), won the Founders Arena at Philippine Blockchain Week 2025, and qualified for the WorldQuant BRAIN International Quant Competition. I am currently writing my undergraduate thesis on Bayesian Optimization for Energy-Efficient LLM Inference, aiming to publish cutting-edge research in AI systems.
