Hey, I'm <Tim> 👋

I’m a multidimensional Software & Support Engineer with a passion for building and backing impactful tech—especially in open-source and blockchain spaces. My work lives at the intersection of engineering, support, and strategy, blending deep technical know-how with hands-on Product and Project Management. Whether I’m squashing bugs, architecting systems, or guiding teams through chaos, I bring clarity, curiosity, and a get-sh*t-done attitude to every challenge. I don’t just support products—I help them evolve. I build flexible agile teams, award winning departments, and projects within start-ups, including the world's largest cryptocurrency ATM operator CoinFlip.
