I am driven to build innovative solutions to longstanding problems in the maritime industry and create the communities necessary for them to thrive - and relentlessly enthusiastic about doing so. Currently, I head Global Partnerships at EVIDENT, a licensed and regulated marketplace that transforms real-world assets into digital securities, and am the Senior Relationship Manager - Maritime for Satva Trust, which tackles the data side of things to replace the flawed and unreliable self-reported data that’s all the industry has had access to up until now with independent, real-time, and verifiable data on fuel consumption and carbon emissions.EVIDENT: EVIDENT's first case study tokenized a $100m USD climate-aligned LNG carrier vessel, the first to be done and placed in market, which opened doors to investors globally, allowing them to co-invest in smaller and more flexible ticket sizes. The potential of tokenization as a form of alternative ship financing is formidable if we can grow an engaged community into a solid market around this vertical to provide essential liquidity. The EVIDENT platform currently offers access to a broad range of tokenized alternatives, such as aviation, EV, unicorn secondaries, art, and more.Satva Trust: Uncertainty is expensive. Using its proprietary ML model and satellite data, Satva Trust is able to equip shipowners, charterers, marine lenders, and insurers with accurate, actionable insights that can reduce uncertainty, manage risk, optimize costs, and unlock new revenue streams, such as voluntary avoidance carbon credits.My journey over the past more than a decade in brand advisory and strategic partnerships, from the San Francisco Bay Area to Athens, Greece, working with a diverse range of corporations, characters, and bespoke brands, has been instrumental in honing the skills necessary to wrestle the elegant solutions to clunky, unruly problems to light that keep us rare, receptive, and resilient.
