• Designed a Play-to-Earn game economics from scratch, accepted by Angel Investors and Advisors.
• Managed a team of 10 people: Designers, Developers and other creative specialists.

• Applied structured approach to project management, incorporating documentation and async communication.

2020 - 2022 - Business Associate (for Crypto Consumer Product) at Daftcode, Warsaw (PL)

• Joined as a Business Associate, soon effectively acting as the COO of the venture.
• Scaled the user base, revenue and reached the Break Even Point, leading to acquisition of the venture in 2022 by a large player in the industry.
