About

I am a seasoned business development leader and co-founder with 10+ years of experience driving growth in fintech, blockchain, Web3, and financial services. My journey has taken me from client services at global banks like Citi and Credit Europe Bank, to sales and marketing at PayU, and into the fast-evolving world of cryptocurrency with Kuna. As General Partner and BD Advisor at Kuna, I’ve built and managed strategic partnerships, scaled business operations, and contributed to ecosystem growth in the blockchain space. My background blends hands-on experience in client relationship management, partnership development, and market research with strong leadership and advisory skills. Passionate about innovation at the intersection of finance and technology, I thrive on creating long-term value for businesses, partners, and investors in the Web3 economy.
