What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a Web3-focused role where I can own ecosystem growth and GTM, build partnerships with institutional stakeholders, and lead cross-functional teams to deliver compliant, revenue-generating products in fast-moving markets.

I’m a high-impact business development professional with 5+ years driving growth across decentralized ecosystems and emerging markets. I specialize in bridging Web2 infrastructure and Web3 innovation through strategic partnerships, revenue-generating initiatives, and clear execution.

In my most recent role, I improved operational efficiency by 25% using Agile methodologies, maintained a 95% stakeholder satisfaction rate, and led a global remote team to launch 5+ blockchain products with full compliance to technical requirements and market security standards. Previously, I scaled organic community engagement by 50% via incentive-based referral programs, turned user pain points into 20+ actionable product features, and reduced dispute resolution time by 30% while sustaining 95% satisfaction.

I’ve also owned Africa expansion and ecosystem integration work, including a 300% increase in network transaction volume in 6 months, onboarding 50+ active developers, and negotiating technical integrations that supported 99.9% uptime for decentralized RPC services. I bring strong regulatory navigation, stakeholder management, and crisis mediation to help teams deliver scalable outcomes.
