Partnerships And Gtm

I'm a high-agency leader passionate about accelerating crypto and web3 adoption. With deep expertise in partnerships and go-to-market (GTM) strategies, I co-founded Unloc Money, forging key alliances with Bridge.xyz and others to launch a low-fee cross-border payment platform. At Phaver, a leading decentralized social app, I spearheaded global partnership strategies across Asia, the USA, Europe, and the Middle East, connecting with top brands like Pudgy Penguins, CryptoPunks, 9dcc, and Bankless.

Embedded in global tech and web3 communities, I’m actively involved with innovative hubs like Edge City and hold a Chromie Squiggle #9774, anchoring my connection to some of crypto’s real OGs. Beyond work, I’m committed to health and fitness, training regularly in the gym, running ultra-marathons like Ultra Trail Cape Town (100km), competing in HYROX, and practicing Jiu-Jitsu.

I’m seeking a Chief of Staff or GTM role in a visionary crypto company shaping the future. Let’s connect to drive bold, strategic growth.
