Carla Kirk-Cohen

Carla started working on Bitcoin as a member of the crypto-ops team at Luno, a South African Exchange and Wallet. During her time there she led a project integrating Lightning Network sends and receives, which is when her interest in the Lightning Network began. She attended the 2019 Chaincode Labs Summer Bitcoin residency, where she learned about Bitcoin and Lightning and contributed to LND. She is excited about building infrastructure for the Lightning Network to make it easier to participate in a decentralized, private payments system.
