I’ll never forget the lemonade stand I ran when I was eight years old. It only brought in $100… But that hustle inspired me to try real estate, forex trading, and stock trading Ultimately allowing me to build a credit services company from 0 to $5M ARR. And college? Graduated with a double major and double minor — but I was restless. And with $5K in graduation money, I went all in on cryptocurrency— And in 6 months, that investment multiplied to $250K. I felt unstoppable, scaling a startup’s community to 50,000 and its market cap to over $100M. But then it happened— The founder did a rug pull; crashing the project, wiping out millions & turned my world upside down. I had my Mike Tyson moment—realizing everyone’s got a plan ‘til they get punched in the mouth. I had no choice but to keep going. So, I pivoted back to financial consulting, managing $50M. But my entrepreneurial passion persisted. I went all in to find answers, and noticed something remarkable. I connected with countless freelancers, professionals, & companies all who had a similar story. Applying for countless roles to find out the company or role wasn’t legitimate. Performing work and not getting paid or taking weeks to receive payment on freelancing platforms. Or hiring someone only to receive late or poor quality work, costing much needed time and money I knew there had to be a better way to network, transact, and source talent in a transparent way. I just needed a sign and during my conversations I made a striking discovery. Freelancers and Web3 users share a striking resemblance— 70% were millennials and Gen Z with similar age ranges, locations, and interests. This was a sign. And when the world went remote, it was my cue that now was the time. Brass Synergy was born— A vetted, decentralized, global network and talent ecosystem for the new workforce. A fusion of Web3, AI, and Blockchain revolutionizing how people hire and work in Web3 → Creating digitally verifiable on-chain profiles for all users & companies for trust and safety -> Leveraging AI to match talent with jobs, streamline application process, and verify history -> Building a global marketplace with easy, fast, secure payments in cash or cryptocurrency -> Empowering talent & content creators through comprehensive skill builder academy -> Building a community that rewards active members and builds their reputation I started with a lemonade stand and a dream… Now, I’m incredibly grateful to say I help thousands to work and live on their terms. And the best part? I’m just getting started.
