I streamline grant operations, cross-functional workflows, and application processes for the Optimism Foundation.
What I'm looking for
At the Grants Council for the Optimism Foundation, I own operational trackers, reporting, documentation, budget tracking, and Roundup reporting that support grant delivery and council operations.
I've helped deliver 270 grants and review 846 applications while coordinating workflows across council stakeholders, the Developer Advisory Board, Milestones & Metrics, applicants, platform teams, and the Optimism Foundation.
I redesigned the application review workflow, cutting submission-to-decision time by approximately 50%, and directly communicated with more than 500 applicants. I also designed, implemented, and tested application questionnaires and post-approval forms.
Previously at Nimble Giant Entertainment, I designed gameplay systems, led cross-functional feature coordination, tested game experiences, investigated player issues, and supported community initiatives.
