JP, born on Bathurst Island, North of Darwin, was homeschooled in rural Northern territory, finishing Top 6 for the state in his final year.
He then joined the Air Force and studied Aeronautical Engineering, graduating at the top of his year in 2009 with First Class Honours.
After completing his pilot training – earning top course awards – he began Fighter training in 2012.
JP’s final assignment to conclude his career as an Air Force pilot was flying maritime bombers, with operational deployments. He ended up accumulating 2000+ flight hours and flew all over the world.
In 2013, he transitioned to crypto, initially building various decentralised applications. In 2018, he began building a decentralised platform called THORChain under the pseudonym “Leena” along with a team of 5 engineers.
Within 18 months of launching, THORChain reached a market value of $1 billion. In 2024, JP turned over THORChain to the community and revealed himself. Currently, it is the largest decentralised liquidity protocol in the world, with a market value of over $2 billion and over $1 billion in deposits.
Now, JP is working on several other projects to solve key problems in the crypto space.
