Helping Founders Become Thought Leaders | Founder of Cue Studios

You’re already sitting on a goldmine (your personal brand). Let’s unlock it.

I never set out to "build a personal brand." I just started sharing what I knew.

And then, something unexpected happened. Opportunities started coming my way. Clients. Speaking invites. Partnerships.

That was my first “aha” moment. This isn’t just posting online. It’s a growth engine.

Most founders ignore their personal brand. Here’s why that’s a mistake.

Right now, you’re running a business. You’re solving problems. You’re having conversations every day that could be turned into valuable content.

But instead:

• You don’t know what to talk about
• You’re not sure how you want to come across
• You’re not leveraging your experience to attract the right people

What if I told you you don’t have to do anything extra?

Your daily insights are already content. You just need the right strategy to get it in front of the right people.

This is where I come in.

I help founders turn their expertise into authority without wasting time or chasing vanity metrics.

What I do:

• Define your personal brand. Who you are, what you stand for, and how you should show up online
• Create the right content for the right audience so you attract clients, investors, or opportunities
• Develop a system so your brand runs without taking over your life

And here’s what happens when we get it right:

• Speaking engagements on top-tier stages
• Inbound leads and investment opportunities
• Industry recognition that makes you the go-to name in your field
• A network of high-value relationships that drive your business forward

I’ve helped tech founders, Web3 builders, and executives grow their influence and I can help you do the same.

So, what’s your next move?

You can keep letting others control the narrative about who you are.

Or you can start shaping it yourself and attract the kind of opportunities that change everything.

Byron Grealy

I mentioned the idea of moving to Dubai in an off-handed way.

She didn’t blink. She just said: “Hell yes. Let’s do it.”

That moment says everything about the way she backs me.

I was already confident in the plan.
But having someone who immediately matches that energy is huge. 

She quit her job, moved countries, and didn’t turn it into a drama.
She saw the vision and doubled down with me.

And day to day, she still does the same.
She talks through growth plans with me.
She helps me organise whatever nonsense is in my head.
She believes in the goals we’ve set.

Plus, she knows I run on tough love.
So she gives it straight.
No hand-holding. Just the truth I need to hear to get things done.

So here’s the thank you.
For putting up with me.
For pushing me.
And for backing the life we’re building without hesitation.

I may be biased, but I truly believe that everyone needs someone like that in their corner.

You already have a personal brand.

You’re just leaving it up to everyone else to define.

You're always pitching your brand.
You’re doing it on dates, in meetings, in interviews, you just don’t call it that.

Founders forget this.

They treat “personal brand” like an extra task they’ll get to once the product is perfect, the team is bigger, or things finally slow down.

But the real issue is, if people don’t get what you do, they can’t buy it, join it, or care about it.

And most founders stay stuck because their positioning is unclear and they’re not sure what’s worth sharing.

The simplest fix is to document what you actually do all day.

Not the highlight reel.
The decisions, the dead-ends, the small wins, the things you’re still figuring out.

When you do that, you stop running out of ideas, because your work creates them for you.
And the more you show up, the faster the market learns who you are and how to think about you.

You don’t need to become a creator.
You just need to stop hiding the parts of your work that would make people trust you faster.

Because you’re already selling every time you show up.
You may as well decide which version of you people remember.

LinkedIn is popping off right now. 

Rewarding the ones who show up consistently, even posting multiple times a day. That wasn't a thing before.

Galino Labs

As founder of Galino Labs, I am building what the industry lacked: a strategic nerve center where behavioral science meets deal-making muscle. 

We don't just advise - we rewire decision-making for biotech CEOs, investors and scientific leaders drowning in uncertainty.

Why 93% of strategic initiatives fail (and how we fix it):

- We implant behavioral science frameworks (prospect theory, pre-mortem analysis) that:
• Turn analysis paralysis into decisive M&A moves
• Convert risk aversion into calculated aggression
• Transform boardroom debates into aligned action within 3 meetings


Our proprietary intelligence engine, the "Signal House™", tracks what others miss:
• Hidden leverage points in R&D commercialization
• Clinical trial cost budgeting and design
• Portfolio blind spots distorting billion-dollar decisions

I am building Galino Labs, as the next business powerhouse in the life sciences industry with my expert collaborators, to deliver what leaders actually need:

• For founders, it is the "alchemy" that will turn science into irresistible investment narratives
• For investors, the "A Lens" to spot the 10X outliers before term sheets arrive
• For scientific leaders, the boardroom playbook to transition from lab genius to a commercial strategist

Our 3 brand pillars are:

Signal Intelligence → We see first, act fastest
Decision Engineering → Behavioral science meets dealmaking
Founder DNA → Built by operators, for operators

Are you building the strategic infrastructure for biotech's next decade?

Founder & Decision Architect

freelancer

Small pipettes shouldn’t mean small thinking. 

Beyond Galino Labs, I arm emerging bioscience founders with Fortune 500-caliber strategies.

Why?
 

Because breakthrough science deserves breakthrough commercial thinking.

Here’s where I change the game and the 3 high-impact solutions that come with it:

Market-focused due diligence - My scientific assessments don’t just evaluate technology, they blueprint commercialization pathways before your first funding round.

"Forward-look" business architecture -  My goal is to design business models that convert scientific promise into irresistible investment propositions.

Precision market navigation - No more wandering the "valley of death." I plot your route to market with the certainty of a Phase III clinical trial endpoint.

What makes this work? 

I’m fluent in both the language of peer review and the dialect of investor pitches. 

My frameworks help innovators anticipate market shifts before they appear on competitors’ radars. 

Most importantly:

I transform your data into strategic decisions so compelling they feel inevitable.

This isn’t consulting. This is strategic enablement for science pioneers.

Life Sciences Business Analyst

Genopole

The SHAKER program by Genopole, France's leading biocluster, is an innovative incubator designed for early-stage biotech entrepreneurs.

As a mentor in this program, my major role is to provide entrepreneurial insights to the biotech projects involved.

On top of that, bi-monthly I will be giving presentations to the student-founders on topics related to:

- Identifying the Biotech Market Needs
- Life Sciences Business Scaling-Up
- Conceptualizing Business Models
- Bringing Forward Their Value Proposition

My whole experience so far has been very rewarding, as I find great fulfilment by mentoring the founders that are part of the program.

Startup Mentor

SweetBlocks

As a Co-Founder at SweetBlocks, I was the second go-to-mastermind working behind the scenes, orchestrating every quirky detail of our revolutionary protocol that focuses on gamified web3 tokenomics, a concept that is exciting and still nascent in the space.

With a daring entrepreneurial  spirit and a passion for cutting-edge technology, I worked closely with our talented cross-functional team to ensure that our internal processes are delivered with ingenuity.

From inception to delivery, together with my colleague Marco Piccioli, we were setting our sights high and leading the charge to bring our bold vision to life. 

I thrive on the challenge of delivering unparalleled ideas in every aspect of our projects.

With a keen eye for detail and a sharp mind for risk management, I stayed one step ahead of the game, identifying potential issues and devising solutions before they become roadblocks.

Unfortunately, tough market times and our strong conviction in bootstrapping the project did not work out and the project has been deceased, hence I learnt tons on product ideation, design and project management.

Business Development (Partnerships)

Zoetis UK

I had the opportunity to work at PetMedix, an Animal Health company, that was successfully acquired by Zoetis (the world's leading animal health company).

At PetMedix, under the supervision of Dr. Marco Bardelli, I was involved in the R&D department, where the aim was the ideation of therapeutic mAbs (design and bioengineering) for companion animals, where my work included:

-CHO culture preparation for mAbs expression
-Antibody design bioengineering
-Transfection
-Protein Purification and Characterization (Chromatographic Techniques - HPLC & IEX)
-Protein Stress Tests 
-ELISA and SDS-PAGE assays

Research Associate

Cignpost Diagnostics Ltd.

Previously Scientist for onsight COVID-19 testing at Cignpost Diagnostics Ltd  (Heathrow Airport). 

It was fun (at times) and hectic, but definitely learnt a lot from my colleagues during the pandemic times by seeing their work ethos.

Scientist

National Food Institute, Technical University of Denmark

Student research assistant in the lab of Prof. Egon Bech Hansen, where my work was two fold:

1)  The computational discovery of proteases that can hydrolyse a specific region of potato's total proteasome.

This task has been followed by:

-Using already established bioinformatics tools that are readily available on the web
-Identification of interesting peptides from potato  protein that have potential food applications, and not only.
-In silico investigation of the features that potato protein possesses and how those can be exploited further downstream in the process.

2) The promoter expression level assaying of several Lactococcus strains, with a focus on the expression of a particular outer-membrane protease, named PrtP. 

The focus was on:

-Developing fastidious minimal media for the growth of L. lactis. This objective will support the main goal which is to create a growth substrate that can support the discovery of novel L. lactis mutants that acommodate mutations prefereably on the PrtP protease.
-Potato protein hydrolyzation through the mutants and identification of their specific characteristics ( 
through sequencing, checking the proteolysis pattern  and the optimal protease functioning conditions ).

Research Assistant

International Hellenic University

My thesis' project had as a major aim to identify the potential antimicrobial activity of several newly synthesized chemical compounds that could target the DNA gyrase of Escherichia coli. 

As Molecular Docking was our virtual screening method for identifying the most promising candidate compounds, diverse open-source bioinformatics tools have been used in order to succeed in discovering those that could be further studied not only in silico but also in vitro.

Noteworthy is that fact that the library of our tested ligands had been given for virtual screening through our collaborators at the Aristostle University of Thessaloniki, precisely from the School of Pharmacy of the same institution.

Research Thesis

Weizmann Institute of Science

I won a scholarship from the Kupcinet-Getz International Summer Science School Program of
Weizmann’s Institute in Israel, to conduct research at the lab of Dr. Ilana Kolodkin-Gal’s, in the Department of Molecular Genetics. 

My project had to do with the expression level assessment of SKF, an allelopath cannibalism toxin in Bacillus subtilis. To assess SKF’s expression level, B. subtilis during growth was treated with the root exudates of various plants.
