Hi! I’m Gytis.
- I received an Emergent Ventures grant to, among other things, make books first class citizens of the web. I’m no longer convinced this is so important, but I still love to read – check out my book list.
- In 2023, in pursuit of better weather, economic growth, and refining my skill in software craftsmanship, I moved from Dublin to San Francisco on an O1A visa.
- I’m currently building financial infrastructure for logistics at AtoB, and I also previously interned at AWS and Stripe.
