About

Business development and growth leader with 10+ years of experience building and scaling financial infrastructure, crypto exchanges, and Web3 products across global markets. Over the past 7 years, I’ve focused on structuring partnerships, launching scalable products, and driving revenue growth for crypto-native and fintech platforms - from early-stage to high-volume operations. I have hands-on experience working directly with funds, DeFi ecosystems, and high-net-worth individuals, structuring capital allocation, partnerships, GTM strategies, negotiating and integrating fiat on/off ramp solutions, KYC/KYB providers, liquidity partners, and third-party vendors - ensuring seamless onboarding, compliant operations, and strong treasury flows. I’ve also organized and branded large-scale industry booths at major global events including TOKEN2049 in Singapore, High End Congress of Economic Diplomacy Monaco and the World Blockchain Summit Dubai, generating thousands of qualified leads and expanding institutional networks. At a major UAE centralized exchange, I led strategic partnerships, marketing campaigns, and sales initiatives to grow users, revenue, and global visibility. This included managing high-profile brand collaborations with Ferrari, Ronaldinho Gaucho, Formula 1, Jumeirah Group, Binance Link, the Abu Dhabi Tokenisation Fund, and the Tron Foundation - significantly increasing brand authority, institutional trust, and user growth. In addition, I secured high-impact media coverage by placing press releases with leading outlets, including Forbes, Cointelegraph, Yahoo Finance, and Bloomberg, significantly strengthening brand visibility and reputation.
