Community & Growth Manager deeply involved in Web3, crypto, NFTs, GameFi, and emerging blockchain tech for the past 5+ years. I’ve helped scale projects from zero to 100K+ communities, built viral growth campaigns, managed high-volume Discord/Telegram ecosystems, and worked closely with teams across TON, Solana, and the broader crypto space.
I’m passionate about building communities that actually feel alive, not just inflated numbers. From running large-scale campaigns and KOL partnerships to handling crisis management during volatile markets, I focus on creating strong engagement, trust, and long term retention.
Worked on projects that actually raised millions, sold out presales, reached millions of users, and delivered major Web3 activations in Dubai including events at the Museum of the Future. Also deeply into dApps, AI integrations, Telegram Mini Apps, and consumer crypto experiences shaping the next wave of adoption.
Long term crypto investor myself who genuinely lives and breathes the space both professionally and personally.
