Brand is Story.

Story is Growth.

Growth is Sugar.

About Me

Full-Stack Marketer & Brand Strategist for the Decentralized Era

For fifteen years, I've worked in fast-moving industries, helping brands grow and connect with their audience. My background spans everything from AAA gaming and publishing to the early days of Web3 to the heydays of DeFi to the rise of crypto gaming.

Each chapter gave me one truth: brands that tell stories, grow.

My job is to bring together creativity and growth strategy. I help companies develop a clear message, build a dedicated community around it, and find the right way to get their product in front of people. I enjoy the challenge of taking a brand from its very beginning and helping it find its footing in the market.
