Bridging the gap between traditional finance and digital assets to help institutions thrive in the crypto economy.
Currently driving Institutional Business Development at M2, a Dubai-based digital asset management company, where I focus on OTC trading, Earn, and Lending solutions for institutional clients across APAC and the Middle East.
