Enricco Gemha

I build iOS apps and the backends behind them. Right now that mostly means OpenGiving, a marketplace running as a web app, an iOS app and an Android app on one API that I write all of.

M.S. Innovation Management & Entrepreneurship at Brown, May 2027. Before that, first engineering hire at DAERO Group in Boston, and a B.S. in Computer Engineering at Insper in São Paulo. Providence, Rhode Island.

I am at Brown until May 2027, working on OpenGiving most days and reading my way further into systems security, which is the elective I am taking at Harvard this term. If you want to talk about any of the above, or about something you are building, write to me.
