The Journey from
Reporter to Builder
I started as a financial journalist with a decade covering markets for some of the world's leading financial platforms — FXStreet, Investing.com, DailyForex, Bitcoin Magazine, SeekingAlpha, Kitco, and Nasdaq among others. Along the way I worked to establish FXStreet's technical and fundamental analysis divisions, including live coverage, video channels, the economic calendar, and the news feed — and created the Currency Forecast Sentiment Tool used by traders and institutions worldwide.
Then I crossed the line. I moved from writing about markets to building inside them — leading the Americas expansion for a global digital assets platform across several countries, navigating regulatory frameworks being written in real time, and generating multi-million dollars in deal volume through a partner network spanning 150 countries.
Today I run Witbrew, a boutique BD and financial strategy consultancy advising fintech and digital asset platforms on institutional partnerships, cross-border payment infrastructure, and global market entry.
My conviction has never changed: finance should work for everyone. That means giving people, projects, startups and companies access to the financial system — not as charity, but as a functioning economic model that empowers people to participate, save, transact, and grow.
Three Ways to
Work Together
Sourcing, structuring, and closing institutional partnerships across exchanges, OTC desks, banks, family offices, and fintech operators. Full deal lifecycle from first conversation through launch and scale — including one of the first digital asset licenses secured in El Salvador.
Payment rail architecture, stablecoin settlement infrastructure, MSB operations, and corridor optimization. Building the layer between what regulators allow, what banks will touch, and what customers actually need — reducing settlement costs by 50% across multiple jurisdictions.
Market analysis, fintech strategy content, and thought leadership for institutional and retail audiences. Sharp, signal-rich content that works for the expert and the newcomer simultaneously — including the Currency Forecast Sentiment Tool used globally since 2010.
