Richard P.

I'm a seasoned software architect and blockchain expert, boasting over 25+ years of coding and development team leadership experience across five countries. During these years I have successfully delivered projects in the realms of government, banking, media, and startups.

With a track record of driving innovation, I have founded RailsFrance in 2005, evangelized Ruby on Rails in Europe and APAC, founded and organized the first editions of the "Paris on Rails" conference. I have been teaching programming to junior developers for years and have delivered presentations and talks at numerous universities and conferences.

Since 2017, I have focused on Solidity programming and I'm passionate about sharing my expertise in distributed ledger technologies, Web3, blockchains, smart-contracts, software architecture and development. In January 2022, I co-engineered the largest NFT airdrop in history on the Ethereum blockchain, resulting in the birth of the Orthoverse metaverse project.

I am eager to mentor aspiring developers in Solidity and smart-contract development, drawing on my extensive knowledge of programming languages, software architecture, and cutting-edge technologies. I believes in a personalized approach to teaching, fostering an open and supportive environment to ensure that my mentees can flourish and excel in their careers.
