About Babatunde Okeowo

With a strong foundation in outbound sales and a deep passion for Web3, I help crypto founders and Web3 teams simplify global payroll and compliance at Rise Works. My role revolves around solving a major pain point—ensuring companies can pay contributors seamlessly in fiat & crypto while staying compliant, without the headaches of traditional payroll systems. Before stepping into Web3, I built my sales career in cybersecurity at CrowdStrike, where I specialized in educating IT leaders on cloud security, endpoint protection, and risk management. That experience sharpened my ability to break down complex technical solutions into clear, actionable value for decision-makers. Now, as an Account Executive in Web3, I thrive on helping fast-moving startups scale, engaging with founders, and crafting creative outbound strategies to drive growth. I’m especially excited about using memes, Twitter/X, and unconventional sales tactics to connect with the community authentically. When I’m not closing deals, you’ll find me deep in the crypto space, networking with Web3 builders, or strategizing my next move toward financial freedom. Let’s connect!
