See the Frontier.
Build the Systems.

A decade at the frontier of emerging technology and global events.
I help ambitious organizations cut through the noise, make the right bets on what is next, and build the operational systems to back it up.

Execution at Scale.
Systems by Design.

Over the past decade, I've orchestrated global events with a combined attendance of 50,000+, shaped go-to-market strategies for leading foundations, and built the operational infrastructure behind some of the most ambitious projects in decentralized tech.

I founded Kollektiv Systems, a strategic consultancy to help organizations navigate the frontier of emerging technology. We work at the intersection of AI, Web3, and large-scale operations, helping teams separate signal from noise and turn strategic bets into functioning systems.
