Before starting out in web3 I worked as an Architect specialised in Aviation designing airport and airport infrastructure. I have over 25 years experience in Architecture and ran my own practice, Mark Physsas Architects from 2014 to 2024. 

The reason I dissolved my practice was because of the high stakes in airport development bids and the hours (standard is 100hrs work week) with hardly any down time. I felt it was not sustainable to my health and was not able to take any time off without still putting in 14-18hrs in a day. Many of my peers had left architecture and pursued careers in project management or left the construction profession all together. Although completed a project management course and was an affiliate associated member of the association of project management it was not a creative role. 

I pursued different avenues including software development as a product manager and UX/UI designer. Inevitably ended up exploring blockchain technology and was hooked at the creative possibilities. 

I initially worked as a community manager developing campaigns and learning about social media growth in 2020. I then secured some opportunities in web2 and web3 as a social media growth manager. During 2021 i undertook a marketing course to specialise as a marketing strategist. I had previously done some 3-7day courses running my architectural practice in marketing and realised i could offer more as problem-solving is an inherent part of being an architect. 

I've helped over 100 web3 projects as a freelance marketing strategist, project advisor from inception to the strategic development of a project including UX/UI. I have skills in developing videos, animations and social media livery and branding. 

During 2014-2022 i also was an active streamer and twitch partner. Building my presence in FPS and strategy games. I entered esports competitions and also won a few in semi-pro level tournaments. I also managed 2 teams and developed content strategy for streamers also. During this time i also worked as an advisor for a number of games to help them with architectural elements to better develop environments. 

I am looking for a high level role as a Marketing Strategist or Marketing CMO. I am passionate, hard working and a proven track record of leading, performing and developing.
