I'm the co-founder of NFT Fest Australia, a leading web3 conference that has gained global attention for its quality of content, A grade speaker line-up and powerful networking opportunities. Through my work, I've built an exceptionally strong network within the web3/blockchain ecosystem, both locally and globally, having invested in meaningful relationships that will last beyond hype cycles. Currently, I am the Head of Growth & Partnerships for Upside DAO - a crypto/web3 co-working hub and events facility in Melbourne, and a capital allocator focused on supporting the next wave of web3 startups. I also provide consulting services to brands, athletes, artists and musicians navigating the digital asset ownership era, focusing on web3 strategy, marketing and community building. In addition to being a frequent public speaker on web3 and technology, I am a feature writer for Cointelegraph on digital art, host an NFT-centric weekly podcast, and enjoy being an avid collector of digital objects. Before my pivot to the web3 world, I honed my skills for 14 years in the sports industry, most recently as Senior Manager of Marketing & Digital at Golf Australia. My expertise spans sponsorships, marketing (digital and traditional), event planning and execution, content creation, PR, and communications. My curiosity fuels my work and is my greatest asset. Always eager to learn, grow and help others do the same.
