Head of AI & Automation @ White Star Capital

A seasoned professional in the Web3 industry, I began my career in venture capital in 2015 before going down the rabbit hole of decentralization in 2016 and founding my first company in the Web3 industry in 2018. I'm currently CEO and Co-Founder of Oamo, a decentralized data broker designed to empower individuals to control and monetize their data securely and anonymously. Before Oamo, I was fortunate to join Figment as employee #2, where I spearheaded the development of our developer tools and API-based products. As the head of the API business unit, I had the chance to contribute to Figment's growth as a market leader in staking and blockchain infrastructure. On my Web3 journey, I also co-founded Canada's first NFT gallery, 0x Society, in June 2021. Operating as a non-profit organization, we're dedicated to promoting digital art and fostering a vibrant community around it. As I continue to delve deeper into the Web3 world, my mission is to leverage blockchain's potential to redefine data privacy and ownership, bringing us a step closer to a truly equitable internet.
