What I'm looking for

I'm looking to create clear, high-performing SEO and product content for fintech, crypto, AI, trading, and technology companies, helping audiences understand complex products while improving organic visibility, thought leadership, and conversion.

At FundingPips, I translate trading, market microstructure, and platform concepts into SEO articles, guides, technical explainers, and trader education. I also create short-form social content and edit internal copy for clarity and precision.

Previously, at iBTC, my whitepaper and investor-focused Bitcoin DeFi content contributed to $8M in pre-seed funding, while SEO and LLM optimization helped dlcBTC rank for competitive terms and appear in AI-generated answers. At CoinGecko, I researched blockchain data and built authoritative, search-optimized content around transactions, fees, addresses, block speeds, and TVL.

I've spent 8+ years turning complex fintech, finance, crypto, AI, and iGaming topics into articles, whitepapers, newsletters, website copy, and social content that people can understand and act on. My work has delivered 50+ articles with a 95% client satisfaction rate, increased a client's blog traffic by 40% in three months, and improved audience engagement by 75%.
