Wilfrid Okorie

Fullstack Software Engineer

About

Began software journey as a frontend engineer, building interfaces and learning React. Over time, I expanded into fullstack development, working across the full stack from databases to user interfaces.

Added Blockchain Technology to my inifinity gauntlet late 2024, starting with Starknet, and acquiring skills in Cairo, Rust and now Solidity.

My work spans from traditional web applications to blockchain protocols, always with an emphasis on clean architecture, performance, and security. I'm particularly interested in applied cryptography, finance, system design, and building tools that developers love to use.
