### Projects

Aside smaller contributions, I worked on the following projects:

- **PoV-Reclaim:**
- **Description:** Allow parachains to make full use of their PoV-size by reclaiming storage weight that was overestimated due to worst-case benchmarking.
- **PRs:** [Runtime Side](https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/pull/3002), [Node Side](https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/pull/1462), [Integration Guide](https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/pull/4244)
- **Pinning Improvements:**
- **Description:** Revisited Substrate internal management of notification-based block pinning. Resolves issue where blocks were pinned too long.
- **PRs:** [Introduce Notification Pinning Limit](https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/pull/2935)
- **Parachain Authoring Overhaul:**
- **Description:** Work in progress to prepare parachain nodes for upcoming elastic-scaling changes. This will make the parachain block authoring more flexible by introducing authoring on multiple cores and preparing future, more dynamic, authoring models.
- **PRs:** [Refactor polkadot-parachain](https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/pull/3511), [Prepare test infrastructure](https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/pull/3568), [Introduce slot-based collator](https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/pull/4097)
