Fun fact: I have a Private Pilot License (PPL) | I was researching other use cases for crypto and discovered namebase. From that moment on I was hooked on the concept of handshake. | My interests are aviation and aerospace tech, anything that has to do with computers, travelling, spending time with my family and of course crypto, especially handshake. |

paulwebb/ | Namer | Cupterino, USA | I fancy myself an architech (not a typo). I design and code whatever comes to mind. Outside of work ("senior" web development) I'm usually designing/coding one of my many projects. When I need a break I'm usually playing Fortnite.
I got my start in web development during the recession of 2008. Fun fact, I coded my first website out of anger. I asked a web shop for a quote and I thought their number was outrageous so I stumbled upon a way to do it myself...using tables. Yuk. | I honestly forget... | Same as my bio lol |
peepoHNS/ | Namer | Atlanta, USA | Currently a college student full time. My hobbies include gaming and going for long walks to the fridge. I'm a chill frog. | I kept seeing Steven McKie tweet about it on Twitter. I decided to look into it and have been loving the community and project ever since. | On my free time I enjoy playing online poker and shitposting+browsing forums, Twitter, and discord. |
