Bio

I have actively built, refined, and invested in blockchain-powered DApps and companies, making possible the previously impossible. Having been an entrepreneur, director of an angel network, and a fund partner I am keen on creating value through well-run businesses and well-designed dApps. My strengths lie in detail orientation, team building, and clear communication. I prioritize empowering, refining the thinking of and supporting the entrepreneurs. For the companies I invest in, I sharpen the narrative of the services, perfect the user experience, maintain compliance of the product, and identify growth, pivot, or exit areas for the core offerings. Now, the General Partner of Bloccelerate, I am driven to bring the next best line up of projects to life targeting mass-retail, government and enterprise adoption. I maintain that the next decade of blockchain investment will be different from that of the last; more value will accrue in the application layer above the protocols. It's time we see large organizations purchase services they can't live without from blockchain companies and dApps. Living and breathing to realize this future. In my previous venture funds, I focused on early-stage incubation, scouting and crafting the terms of 10x opportunities. I maintained thought leadership through speaking at accelerators, incubators, and conferences. I managed the legal and accounting teams.
