Professionally trading options income strategies and providing product design services for crypto companies and crypto focused VC. My passion for trading encompasses options, crypto, and futures, which has deepened my understanding of market dynamics and the behaviors of both traditional and crypto traders. Recently, I've focused on options strategies such as Cash Secured Puts, Covered Calls, Synthetic Covered Calls (diagonal debit spreads), and the Wheel strategy, where I've seen considerable success in generating consistent weekly income. As of November 2024, I've made the decision to pursue trading full-time while also providing UX advisory services to venture capital firms. I plan to continue this path until I find the next Product Design opportunity that truly excites me.Trading has enhanced my ability to design effectively for the crypto space. This hands-on experience across diverse markets and techniques has given me valuable insights into guiding traders and investors from traditional finance into crypto, enabling my teams and me to build products that seamlessly address client needs and bridge the gap between these financial landscapes.

In my time at Kraken I have taken several major product launches from zero to one. In my first year I recognized a need for and began to advocate for a mass market, easy to use and onboard, product aimed at bringing the next large wave of investors into crypto. Fast forward almost 6 years later and now this has not only become a reality but a smashing success with our “Consumer” platforms outpacing “Pro” platforms.I now lead a team focused on the following product experiences across all platforms (Pro, Consumer, Institutional): earn/staking programs, new token listings, custody, OTC and new investment vehicles for retail, accredited and institutional investors.
