I was a financial consultant at UBS Securities and Morgan Stanley. Later I started several companies in the fintech sector, receiving investments from prominent VCs such as SoftBank and Carlos Slim. In 2012 I learned about Bitcoin, and, in 2013, I started a blog and podcast about fintech and blockchain. In 2015, I started a company called Etherplan, a global wealth management platform on Ethereum, and co-founded Global Financial Access Inc. with Nick Szabo, a blockchain pioneer. In 2018, I worked as business development and marketing manager at ETCDEV. Since December of 2018 I have been working on researching, writing, communicating, and coordinating various activities on the Ethereum Classic ecosystem.
