Your Portrait

I'm Chris — Web3 Engineer & DevRel

I am a Full-Stack and Web3 engineer focused on shipping real-world onchain products and enabling developers to build on Base. I have a strong track record of building, scaling, and educating within the Base and Coinbase ecosystem, with deep experience in developer relations, fintech infrastructure, and ecosystem growth across Africa.

As a Base Ambassador in East Africa, I drive developer adoption through hands-on programs coordinated with Eddie Kago, the Base East Africa lead. I have co-shipped multiple miniapps with Base Builders, led workshops covering Paymaster integrations, OnchainKit, Base Accounts, Coinbase Developer Accounts, and Basenames, and served as a technical liaison between builders and the Base ecosystem.

I built Minisend, a Farcaster miniapp on Base enabling seamless off-ramping of USDC to local fiat (KES via M-Pesa, NGN via bank transfer) — a Base Batches 002 winner that has scaled to 1,000+ users and processed $120,000+ USDC. Through Kaizen Club, I have organized workshops, hackathons, and study sessions for 500+ developers, mentoring early-stage developers transitioning into Web3 and full-stack engineering. I am currently in my final year pursuing a BSc. in Computer Science at Technical University of Kenya.
