Business Developer Operator
Zero-to-One BD Operator
I join early-stage projects before there's a playbook, BD engine, community infrastructure, and partner pipeline from scratch. Did I build the successfully across 4 crypto projects? I genuinely believe AI changes how small teams compete, and I want to be the person who knows how to use it best. I build agentic workflows, vibe code tools, and automate ops so teams can move faster with less. I'm the person you bring in when nothing exists yet and something needs to exist fast.
