PRODUCTS
THAT COUNT.

I build DeFi products and NFT platforms, and have done since 2020. Before that, and alongside it, institutional crypto since 2014: from BNP Paribas to clearinghouse infrastructure.

Numerate is my consultancy: product strategy for DeFi, NFT and institutional teams who would rather count than guess.
