Started in Counter-Strike cyber cafes in the late 1990s and never really left the world of competitive systems, infrastructure, and optimization.
Over the last 15+ years I've worked across payment processing, datacenter development, industrial Bitcoin and Ethereum mining, and large-scale compute infrastructure. My background spans CPU,
GPU,FPGA, and ASIC deployments, along with air-cooled, immersion, and hydro-based environments. I've spent most of my career around operators building real-world systems rather than investors building pitch decks.
Today I'm the founder of Farpy, a Blender render utility built around a simple idea: upload a .blend file, render it externally, download a ZIP, and get a receipt. Failed renders cost $0.
The long-term objective is broader than rendering. Rendering is simply the first practical step toward a larger distributed GPU network and compute settlement layer capable of coordinating compute across heterogeneous hardware. Current development focuses on compatibility across NVIDIA CUDA, AMD HIP, and Intel GPU ecosystems.
Influences include Stripe, Uber, Kaizen, Six Sigma, DARPA-style systems thinking, and operators who build durable infrastructure instead of chasing trends.
I generally prefer working with builders, operators, engineers, and infrastructure people. Strategic capital is considered when it accelerates execution, not when it creates meetings.
