About Me

I am a business development and partnerships leader with 4+ years of experience driving go-to-market, ecosystem, and revenue growth across Web3, B2B SaaS, and AI-adjacent products.

I have built partner pipelines spanning 50+ projects and 10+ L1/L2 ecosystems, including Base, Arbitrum, Sei, Mantle, and Sonic. My work has supported a $9M raise and helped scale a Telegram-native distribution product to 230,000+ users.

I have operated across the full cycle of growth and partnerships, from outbound prospecting and strategic partnerships to deal negotiation and cross-functional collaboration with product and marketing teams. I enjoy building repeatable systems that turn early traction into measurable growth.

In my recent roles, I have owned go-to-market strategy from zero, designed outbound and partnership playbooks, and run structured customer discovery with engineering, product, and operations leaders. I focus on positioning, messaging, and execution that align product value with market demand.

I have also led ecosystem partnerships, improved developer onboarding, authored technical documentation and newsletters, and supported fundraising efforts through investor outreach and closing-process management. My experience combines commercial strategy with hands-on execution.

I am comfortable working in fast-moving remote environments and across blockchain, SaaS, and growth-focused products. I bring a mix of partnership development, revenue operations, content-driven growth, and product-minded execution.
