Hey Everyone, this is Ben, I joined the Centrifuge team mid September as frontend developer. My career started once as a graphic designer, but I switched to creative development after 3 years out of passion and curiosity. That led my way to frontend development eventually. Over the last years I have been specialized in accessibility, performance and the main javascript frameworks. My motivation to join Centrifuge is based on my belief that blockchain technology will replace most of out current centralized systems and I want to be part of making this happen (not that frontend is key in this transition, but at least I can help). Happy to join the team, happy to get to know you. Find me on Discord as: BenCentrifuge#0777 ---

Welcome Ben! > My motivation to join Centrifuge is based on my belief that blockchain technology will replace most of out current centralized systems and I want to be part of making this happen (not that frontend is key in this transition, but at least I can help). Iā€™d argue frontend is incredibly key here ā€” usability and eventually abstracting away more of the nitty gritty blockchain technical aspects is how we will onboard millions šŸ™‚ ---
