Provide more details:

I’ve spent the past few years working on projects that push toward a more equitable future for creators. I previously led marketing at SuperRare, and have been on the SuperRare DAO Governance Council for the past year, helping shape strategy and ecosystem growth.

Currently at Story, I lead ecosystem and creator marketing for the Layer-1 focused on unlocking programmable IP to ensure creators are credited and compensated as their work flows across the internet and AI tools.

As a creative and long-time art enjoyer, there is no doubt in my mind that digital art is pushing forward the next great movement in art history. I’m deeply invested, both personally and professionally, in the space and believe strongly in SuperRare’s role in bringing it to life.

Please share any relevant experience that would support your work on the Council.

SuperRare is an ecosystem I know deeply, both operationally and culturally. I’m an active collector, believe strongly in SuperRare’s role in advancing digital art as the next great art movement, and am committed to helping bring that vision to life.

Experience:

• 1+ year on the SuperRare DAO Governance Council, contributing to treasury decisions, protocol upgrades, and multi-sig duties.

• Former Marketing Director at SuperRare, leading product launches, partnerships, socials, and comms.

• Currently leading ecosystem and creator marketing at Story, the Layer-1 for IP in the age of AI.

• Previously a consultant at Wachsman, advising 10+ crypto projects across art, AI, DeFi, infra, and consumer tech.

• 5 years in crypto across governance, ecosystem growth, and strategic comms, with a focus on digital art and the creator economy.

• On the Board of Directors of a grassroots nonprofit in Liberia, adding a different, grounded perspective to community and governance.

What commitments can you make regarding availability and reliability for transaction signing, async communication, and participation in meetings?

• Fully committed to async comms, meetings, and showing up in the forum and other public spaces.
• I’ve been signing on the council for the past year and am often involved in setting up transactions due to being readily accessible. Can guarantee continued reliable and fast response times.
• My hardware wallet and phone come with me everywhere. Some call me, “chronically onchain”. Ready to sign anytime any place.
• Beyond admin duties, I’ll continue to be a strong advocate for SuperRare and the broader digital art movement. I care deeply about how this ecosystem grows and evolves.
