I dropped out of Biochemistry in my final year. Spent the next three years teaching myself Rust, TypeScript, and Solidity. Those three years produced two companies that never shipped. Efaktotech was an edtech idea that stayed an idea. Vetorlabs was a Web3 effort where I kept building products nobody ever saw. I was deep in the code and genuinely thought clean architecture was enough. I never once stopped to ask whether the market wanted any of it. Going back to university to study Computer Science changed that. The degree closed the technical gaps I had been ignoring. A Google Developer Group Lead role on campus did something different: it put me in rooms where I had to think about why products actually find users, watching communities form, watching early decisions quietly determine whether something survives. I stopped building alone and started building with the right people around me. Those two things running at the same time gave me something three years of solo building never did. Tybotics Technology Ltd is the first company that came out of that. Our first product, Shernest, is live. Creators are losing real time and money to broken payment flows and deals that fall apart before they start. Shernest is built around that gap: protected work, reliable income, and a professional reputation that does the talking when it counts. Assembli Labs Ltd works strictly in Web3. We are building Paiidex, a payment infrastructure layer for on-chain transactions. Anyone who has tried to send or receive payment in Web3 knows how unnecessarily hard it still is. That is the specific problem Paiidex is built to solve. I am CEO of both companies. I set the direction, own the strategy, and build the teams that carry it. The companies that failed were not a detour. They were the reason everything after them actually worked.
