Years in Web3
Started out as an airdrop farmer and airdrop hunter, exploring Web3 from the user side before pivoting into community work. Joined Photon Labs as a Regional Moderator, moderating a 150k member community. From there, moved into ambassador and regional moderation work at Swisstronik, then into agency side collaboration and growth roles: Collab Manager at Intract, Community & Growth Lead at Neftit, and Community Lead at Crowwd Labs, working across 8 Web3 clients, up to 4 at a time.

Communities Managed
Managed communities across two models: as a direct hire inside individual projects (Photon Labs, Swisstronik, Neftit), and as an agency operator running client communities (Rayls through Growgami, and 8 clients through Crowwd Labs: Bima, Fere AI, TinyFish, Novaswap, Visiion, DefX, UTXO Fun, and Permute Finance).
1M+
Community Members Managed
The largest single community was Rayls, an institutional blockchain project with 420k members. The rest came from a mix of mid-size builds: Photon Labs (150k), Swisstronik's IN-PK region (40k), and growth-stage communities like Neftit and Bima (30 to 35k each).
200+
Campaigns Run
A mix of quest campaigns, contests, waitlist launches, and UGC campaigns where members created and submitted content such as threads for the project, sometimes generating hundreds of submissions per campaign, alongside a wide range of Discord native engagement campaigns such as AMAs and community games, run across Discord, Telegram, and X.
