About me, working backwards
🧩 My 30s: Driving innovation in decentralized tech.
I lead Growth and Partnerships at Avara, namely Lens Protocol and Aave Protocol.
My focus spans decentralized social networking, DeFi, and supporting a decentralized future. By enabling user ownership and autonomy, we’re shaping the next wave of creator empowerment and financial innovation.
Decentralized technology is transforming how people connect and transact - it’s the foundation of a fairer digital economy.
📲 My mid 20s: Early to consumer tech.
Early U.S. and global expansion team at TikTok / ByteDance, scaling disruptive consumer platforms like Blue Apron (early D2C) and TIDAL music streaming.
Before that: Foundation in finance and strategy.
Earning my chops in investment banking at J.P. Morgan covering M&A energy & utilities.
