What I'm looking for

I am seeking a role that fosters innovation and collaboration, where I can leverage my expertise in business development and strategic partnerships to drive growth in the fintech and Web3 sectors.

I am an accomplished business leader with over 15 years of experience in fintech, Web3, and digital media. My expertise lies in strategic partnerships, sponsorships, and revenue growth, where I have a proven track record of scaling Web3 ecosystems and closing high-impact brand deals. As a former Co-Founder of Everyrealm, I successfully led $60M in capital raises and built cross-industry partnerships with notable companies such as JP Morgan and DRESSX. My passion for community engagement has driven me to launch category-defining digital real estate and NFT projects, making significant contributions to the industry.

In my current role as Director of Business Development at Arootah, I provide high-level strategic advice to funds on partnership strategy and business development execution. I have refined investor-facing materials and sponsorship outreach workflows, collaborating with both internal and external teams to build scalable communication systems. My previous experience includes leading ecosystem growth at Level and securing marquee partnerships at Everyrealm, where I generated over $2.4M in NFT sales and represented the company at global events like NFT NYC.
