Hello! I’m Carl. At my core, I’m an artist, dedicated family man, and outdoor enthusiast with a deep passion for all things design

I lead the Product & Design team at Step Finance, diving deep into the evolving world of Web3 and crypto technologies. Here, I focus on guiding our team to create clear, effective tools that make digital finance easier and more accessible for everyone. We’re passionate about innovation that genuinely improves how people manage their digital assets.

My previous roles have been about pushing boundaries. At Dialect, I worked on an innovative messaging app that introduced smart messages and NFT stickers, changing how we think about digital communication. At Metaplex, I contributed to developing the NFT Standard on Solana, enhancing how digital creators and collectors engage with each other.

Before I ventured into blockchain and NFTs, I was at Big Cartel, where I helped artists and creators leverage their passions through simple e-commerce solutions. My focus was on creating tools that were as unique and creative as the artists themselves, helping them to succeed on their own terms.

Outside the office, my life is filled with hobbies that stoke my creativity. From leather crafting to designing clothes, I love getting hands-on and exploring new expressions of art. But it’s not all work—I recharge by spending time outdoors, cycling, snowboarding, or hiking with my family and friends and of course my dog. These moments help me reconnect and find new inspiration.

I believe in making every experience count, whether crafting a user-friendly design or enjoying time with family. It’s about creating meaningful moments and connections. If you value creativity and commitment both in and out of the office, let’s chat. I’m always open to discussing new ideas and exploring possibilities.
