I’m a builder. Whether it’s marketing functions, growth engines, or brands, my expertise lies in building something out of nothing—and scaling it into something that lasts. A marketer at heart and a business leader in mind, I’m often brought in to transform vision into execution and create the foundations that drive long-term growth. Today, I serve as Vice President of Growth at Solvd, where I lead the global marketing function—overseeing growth, brand strategy, communications, and sales enablement. With 15+ years in B2B marketing, I’ve helped both startups and multinational companies accelerate growth with intention. Before Solvd, I was at SoftServe, where I built the company’s AI-powered Digital Concierge on Nvidia’s tech stack—at a time when AI solutions were still in their infancy. Prior to that, I led marketing for Virtusa’s banking and financial services division, where I built and scaled ABM for its key accounts and drove growth across an $800M portfolio—representing half of the company’s business. Beyond my corporate role, I’m proud to serve on the board of NYC Fintech Women, an organization dedicated to connecting, promoting, and empowering women to advance their careers in fintech.

With 10+ years of experience in digital assets and Web3, and over 20 years in brand management, communications, and strategic leadership, I operate at the intersection of innovation, regulation, and brand. As VP of Global Market Expansion and Innovation at TaxBit and Founder of Digital Future Consulting, I help high-growth companies unlock new markets, build trusted narratives, and drive global adoption of digital assets and fintech. I’ve led transformative initiatives across the U.S., U.K., EU, EMEA, APAC, and Latin America—from launching executive summits like The Digital Accord, to driving go-to-market strategies, global expansion efforts, regulatory alignment, and public sector engagement in complex and evolving markets. I serve as U.S. Ambassador for the Global Blockchain Business Council (GBBC) and Board Chairwoman of The Association of Women in Crypto (AWIC). I also advise Eve Wealth, a platform advancing financial access and education for women and allies in Web3. Additionally, I am the creator of Unmanel Your Panel, a community initiative focused on representation and equity in thought leadership spaces. Recognized as a Top 5 Woman in Blockchain, a Top 30 FinTech Marketer, and a finalist for the Diversity in Tech Awards – Tech Leader category, I bring vision and execution to the forefront of every initiative. Whether building a brand from the ground up, advising on international go-to-market, or moderating a panel on stablecoin policy, I’m committed to bringing clarity, credibility, and creativity to the future of finance.
