About

I’m a relentless optimist and problem solver with operating + investing experience across consumer internet, marketplaces, and SaaS. Currently driving growth and customer success in crypto/web3.

As an entrepreneur at heart, I previously founded an patent licensing marketplace and an ecommerce clothing business. I’m also passionate about supporting the startup ecosystem, having worked with founders on product, go-to-market, research, brand, and business development at two venture capital firms.

In my spare time, I write here and enjoy chatting with people who are deep in crypto-adjacent rabbit holes of their own. You can reach me by email at ct534@cornell.edu or DM me on Twitter/X @davidtsocy.
