Fintech & Blockchain: Head of Development Projects

Imperial has some of the world's best finance and technical students, yet our DAO has sat dormant while other universities built on-chain investment communities under the DormDAO umbrella.

What I am currently doing:
As a committee member, I am currently leading the effort, along with Eren, to revive ImperialDAO. When DormDAO stopped admitting new universities, we are currently building our own member-voted crypto paper fund, IFBS Consensus, which is live today. I bring the technical depth to keep building: a First in Computer Science from St Andrews, an MSc in Fintech at Imperial, and a board advisory role at Agnic.ai on AI agent payments and Solana.

On-chain fund:
We will work to move the fund on-chain so every vote and position is publicly verifiable. We will start with a paper fund on a test network and one verified member, one vote.

Token pitches:
I will host regular token pitches where any member can speak to the society's membership to advise on opening/closing a position in the fund.
