Some personal news: I’ll be stepping down as Director of Growth at the Monad Foundation. I've been working on Monad over the last 3 years. I’ve spent the last 9 years in crypto and been full time in the industry since joining the VC team at CMS in 2020. After fielding 1,000+ startup pitches, I came across Monad and knew it was the opportunity of a lifetime. I went all in to help bring it to market. Building Monad from the ground up alongside Keone, James, Eunice, and the broader team has been the most rewarding experience of my career. We set out to build a decentralized, EVM-compatible L1 that truly scales. After years of work, it’s incredible to see that vision come to life. The tech is best-in-class and the ecosystem has 100+ teams full of builders ready for the next wave of users. I’m proud we built this with integrity, no shortcuts, and a long-term mindset. Monad is now in a position to succeed and in great hands, with exciting initiatives coming in 2026 from both the Monad Foundation and Category Labs. I’ll be transitioning into an advisor role and will remain actively involved in supporting Monad and the broader ecosystem. Excited for what's ahead - updates to come.
