Cannon’s Blockchain & Crypto Qualifications
Experience level: Associate
I got into blockchain early and have spent the past few years building real products in the Web3 space. At Nerd United, I became the go-to for NFTs, leading the development of an NFT marketplace and integrating Ethereum smart contracts into our platform. Along the way, I worked on scaling infrastructure with Docker, Kubernetes, and CI/CD, so I know how to bridge the gap between experimental Web3 ideas and production-ready systems. If you’re looking to understand blockchain fundamentals, launch a project on Ethereum, or explore how NFTs and Web3 applications fit into the bigger tech ecosystem, I’d love to help you get there.
