Eric Cuellar

Eric is a designer and business developer focused on the Celo ecosystem. He is the co-founder and CEO of Node Wallet, a non-custodial DeFi wallet made for smartphone users in emerging markets. He previously contributed to Mobius Money, Celo’s cross-chain stableswap exchange, and CeloHub. His first coding project was a USSD-based peer-to-peer lending platform that leverages mobile money on/off-ramps and decentralized money markets to bank the unbanked. During his sophomore year he helped start Blockchain at Cal Poly, the blockchain club at his former university. He also co-authored a paper on stablecoins that outlined how connecting M-Pesa users to stablecoins and DeFi can offer better banking services for both the banked and unbanked.
