Business Development Manager

I work across business development in Web3, with a focus on growth, partnerships, and ecosystem engagement. My work often overlaps with community activation, contributor onboarding, and go-to-market strategy. I’ve been in the space since 2022, closed deals, built KOL networks across APAC and EMEA, and driven meaningful traction for early-stage projects.

Before Web3, I worked with IT SaaS startups in sales and marketing. I’ve worked with security firms, marketing agencies, and protocol teams. I think in GTM frameworks, communicate with context, and move fast with intention.

Outside of work, you’ll find me in sports, reading technical docs or trying out new dApps.
