What I'm looking for

I'm looking for a full-time opportunity in a dynamic startup where I can leverage my growth marketing expertise to drive user engagement and business growth.

I'm a seasoned growth marketer with over 10 years of experience in the Defi and Creator Economy sectors. As a former founder with a successful exit, I have a unique perspective on what it takes to drive startups toward mass adoption. My journey has equipped me with a blend of technical and marketing skills, allowing me to craft innovative strategies that resonate with target audiences.

Throughout my career, I have founded multiple ventures, including Fanvrk and Velvet Digital Ventures, where I successfully managed a diverse clientele, scaling their businesses significantly. Notably, I played a pivotal role in helping FarmersCart increase their monthly recurring revenue from $50k to $350k in just one year. My expertise lies in running and optimizing ad campaigns that deliver high returns on ad spend (ROAS) while driving substantial user acquisition.

My educational background in Computer Science, specializing in Blockchain Development, complements my marketing acumen. I pride myself on my ability to produce engaging content that bridges technical concepts and user-friendly messaging, consistently delivering exceptional results in every marketing initiative I lead.
