Optimizing Product and Revenue Growth Strategy for SaaS & Blockchain | Founder with Successful Exit | Software Architect

Bio

I currently split my time between two ventures: (1) helping SaaS and Web3 businesses uncover hidden revenue opportunities, optimize product and marketing strategies, and diversify income streams; and (2) actively validating a consumer product idea, which I aim to bring to market soon.

With 6 years as a CEO/CTO and 12 years as a software developer, I’m known for my entrepreneurial mindset and adaptability. I have a proven track record in both tech startups and Fortune 500 companies, leading complex projects and strategic initiatives. My strengths include solving complex problems, driving strategic initiatives, and fostering continuous improvement.

In addition, I co-founded and managed an agritourism business, achieving over 100% YoY revenue growth and a seven-figure acquisition. At a blockchain startup, I developed a proprietary algorithm, redesigned the token economy, and overhauled the product roadmap, securing $2M in seed funding.
