About
I'm a hands-on CTO. I write code, own the architecture end to end, and make the calls where regulation meets engineering.
At Gu1, financial companies run their regulatory frameworks in one place. Every requirement stays tied to its evidence and to who approved it, so teams can show exactly what they did, when, and why.
