About Me

Dev-turned-growth. Code, culture & data.

I blend code, culture & data to scale Web3 products across SEA. Started as a frontend developer, moved into Web3 community building, and now specialise in KOL strategy, ecosystem growth, and AI-powered growth ops — based between Malaysia and Singapore.

Most recently at Coinbase / Base as SEA Growth Analyst — bridging 60+ Asian KOLs, supporting 80+ builders, and building AI workflow tools with Claude & GPT to automate regional reporting. Always looking for the next ecosystem to grow.
