About

I’m COO of Friends With Benefits, a decentralized autonomous organization of 5,000+ artists, builders, and thinkers creating the cultural and technical for digitally-native communities.

I also serve on the board of Subvert, a cooperative music platform.

What I Do

My work links why it exists (values), who owns it (incentives), and how it ships (systems). I convert vision into operating reality.

What I’m Exploring

• Alternative organizational models that distribute power more equitably
• New forms of collective ownership and creative agency
• Sustainable paths for community self-determination

What I Value

Community Ownership → systems that serve members, not extract from them
Transparency & Trust → participatory governance that’s visible and accountable
Equitable Power → structures that resist centralization
Creative & Civic Empowerment → widening access through art, culture, and tech
Sustainability with Integrity → balancing scale with values
