Like all of the guests on Koji Conversations, DeFi Dad has a serious appetite for new knowledge. It was only a matter of time before his desire to make a mark and help others make their mark led him to DeFi.

After finishing a chemistry PhD, DeFi Dad pivoted into a completely different world by establishing a cookie baking business on the West Coast. Over 3 years he grew that business to 20 people before the haunting aromas of global change overpowered the smells from the oven. Always up for a challenge, he immersed himself in DeFi podcasts and literature, often studying from when he got home from work to the early hours of the morning.

His persistence paid off when he landed a job at Consensys and took charge of the Ethereal Summits. Within a short space of time he had journeyed from being a bewildered attendant at the conference to its chief organiser.

Now the host of Yield TV and a core member of Zapper, DeFi Dad’s meteoric rise mirrors that of the DeFi world. Somehow, through all of this, the Dad of DeFi still finds the time to be a Dad at home.
