About

I am a strong believer in the power of finance as a tool for personal independence. I’ve advocated the adoption of Blockchain Technologies (DLT) and I support the role cryptocurrencies play in driving inclusion. I believe technology can do great things for humanity, and that DeFi (Decentralized Finance) can leverage tech to bring about stronger economic systems, supported by a greater part of the populous than ever before.
