About
At BNB Chain, I run the community growth playbook end-to-end: 5 flagship IRL hackathons that onboarded 450+ projects and engaged 1,000+ senior developers, a creator network of 150+ KOLs and 50 ambassadors generating 15M+ impressions, and lead POC duties for Binance Blockchain Week 2025 representing BNB Chain, where I activated 2,500+ attendees at one of the ecosystem's largest community events. Net impact: a 35%+ engagement lift, 500+ qualified Web3 project leads, and a revived BNB Martians ambassador program driving 50K-100K monthly reach on the world's most-used smart-contract chain.
I build decentralized communities from the ground up. Across 7+ years in Web3, I've grown ecosystems from zero to millions: 130+ global guilds and 5M+ NEAR wallet creations at NEAR Foundation, a 40,000% user surge with $1M+ in liquidity at Palmswap, and a 62,000% community explosion at Bridge Network. Data-driven strategy meets authentic, on-the-ground relationship building.
My approach is simple. Understand the ecosystem, empower the people within it, and let community-led growth do the rest.
