ABOUT

18+ years across advertising and crypto. I got into Bitcoin in 2013 via Reddit and co-founded Whaleclub, one of the earliest crypto trading communities, which hit 10K+ on Telegram by 2017, while still designing professionally.

The next decade was spent contracting for crypto projects across the space. Most recently I was the sole in-house designer at Botanix Labs, leading motion, the rebrand, Bink product design and conference work.

An AI-native practice. I direct Claude Code and Codex end-to-end to ship production work — and I produce generative video with Seedance, Veo and Kling, then grade, composite and cut the raw output into finished films in After Effects. Two years on ElevenLabs for voice: I record my own VO and transform it for quality and reach.
