He co-founded MLG Blockchain, TrustSwap, Alpaca Network and Gatewayz.ai, is a Founding Partner of GDA Capital with 70+ companies backed, and founded Regenerate Capital in 2026. I’ve built companies from 75+ countries, and I’ve made most of the mistakes a founder can make. That’s the experience I bring to your company. I started at L’Oréal Canada, leading an 8-figure brand launch. Then I jumped into startups and never looked back: co-founder and COO at MLG Blockchain, CMO at TrustSwap, CEO at Alpaca Network, Founding Partner at GDA Capital, co-founder of Gatewayz.ai.

Founders fail because they run out of team, distribution or energy. I focus on all three. If nobody can find you, nothing else matters. Distribution is the bottleneck of this decade, and it’s the part I enjoy most. Great companies need founders who last. I’ve seen too many founders trade their health and family for growth. It’s a bad deal, and it’s unnecessary. Where I help most ## The work I love. 01 ### Distribution: SEO and GEO Get found on Google and in AI answers: technical SEO, structured data, citation-worthy pages and a monthly tracking routine. If nobody can find you, nothing else matters. **Experience** · Built The Alternative Ways to 1M+ monthly views. #1 on Google worldwide for “blockchain consulting”. 02 ### Talent and team building Hiring plans, recruiting pipelines, onboarding and the HR foundations you need before you need them. **Experience** · Scaled MLG Blockchain from 4 to 120 employees in 9 months. Built the HR function at Secure Digital Markets as it grew from 9 to 40. 03 ### Introductions to capital Fundraising readiness, investor mapping and warm introductions to angels, funds and family offices. Plus help structuring the round. **Experience** · Backed 70+ companies as a founding partner of GDA Capital, including 2 seed-to-unicorn outcomes. Alpaca Network raised $1.2M in 2 weeks. LP at Holt Xchange. 04 ### Founder coaching One-on-one coaching on clarity, energy, decisions and life design, so the person running the company keeps growing too. **Experience** · Certified life coach who works with founders and executives on mindset, energy and alignment. Seats I’ve held ## Every seat at the table. CEO, COO, CMO and Chief of Staff. The studio’s operating work comes from roles I’ve actually held. ### CEO Alpaca Network: set direction, raised $1.2M in 2 weeks, built the founding team. ### COO MLG Blockchain: 4 to 120 employees in nine months, fully remote, zero outside funding. ### CMO TrustSwap: $400M+ market cap and users in 75+ countries. Before that, an 8-figure launch at L’Oréal. ### Chief of Staff Secure Digital Markets: 9 to 40 employees, with HR and marketing built from scratch. Speaking ## Topics I speak on. Keynotes, panels, workshops and podcasts, in English, French or Spanish.
