View department →

As a legal advisor to Celestia, I drive various workstreams related to contract negotiation, grant program management, corporate governance, regulatory compliance, token/equity compensation. I draft and negotiate commercial and ecosystem agreements, and provide risk-weighted guidance on legal issues affecting protocol development, incentives, and treasury-related activities.I am immensely passionate about the blockchain space and have spent a decade working, learning, volunteering, and engaging in many of its novel features. Some highlights include- EVM smart contract development (still a work in progress)- An early and significant contributor to LexDAO- Multisig keyholder for various DAOs- Founding a (failed) start-up focused on on-chain estate & trust planning.
