I have an economical background and I'm an analyst, researcher at the intersection of economy, technology and culture. My journey into web3 started in Summer 2021 where I successfully completed "Deep Dive Into Blockchain" Summer School from University of Zurich. After that I started attending ETH hackathons globally like ETHDenver (2nd prize), ETHAmsterdam, ETHNYC (three prizes), ETHCCHack (finalist). Innate curiosity brought me to SheFi, a women led DeFi education program where I act as a teaching instructor, because in web3 the learning never ends. Besides this I act as a Growth and Community Manager for DeFi Africa, which is a network that aims at onboarding the next billion into web3 in Global South.
I have successfully build the following projects at hackathons

  • SAVUS at ETHDenver, crypto savings app with the purpose of incentivising savings and users get native tokens as reward
  • Adamfo protocol (finalist ETHCC Hack): To change the DeFi narrative, the concept of peer-to-pool seems to be an ideal alternative to the extant peer-to-peer model, because it reduces the need for spurious claims.
  • MEV and ME (sponsor prize, OpenSea, Reservoir and The Graph): we create da reputation score (akin to credit score).Using zkProofs to have a private trust score for merchants on market places. Pivoted into modules built on top of NFT auctions for attack (sniping bot) and defense (commit reveal).
