I am excited to share that I am stepping into a new role as Executive Director @fund-defi. My friend and brilliant colleague, @millercwl, will be stepping down as CEO, but will continue to advocate for DeFi as a member of the DEF Board.

We do policy and advocacy work to help DeFi flourish.

Chief Legal Officer at DeFi Education Fund @fund-defi. Human to bader the dog. Avid reader of fantasy fiction. Constantly seeking excellent food.

2/ Right now, we have a unique opportunity to shape the future of DeFi policy in the United States. At DEF, we are prioritizing *durable wins* – wins on the legislative, regulatory, and judicial fronts that set DeFi up for long-term success.

4/ This is an important moment for decentralization, and I am incredibly excited about what’s ahead for DeFi and DEF. I and the entire DEF team welcome your thoughts as we head into our next chapter. I want to hear from you – what are your policy or regulatory questions, hopes, priorities, fears? My DMs are open.

5/ I am also incredibly grateful to @millercwl, a true partner and fierce DeFi advocate, for putting this org in such a strong position to carry our mission forward. Miller built DEF into the org it is today, and DEF’s good reputation is a direct result of his integrity and his thoughtful, pragmatic vision for the future of DeFi. So much of the hugely consequential work he does is behind the scenes, but trust me, if you are using or building DeFi, you have benefitted from his work. Thankfully, he is not going far and will continue to be on the DEF team as we take advantage of the most pro-crypto environment we have ever had to get to durable wins for DeFi.

3/ We are committed to fighting for DeFi through education and advocacy. We will explore new ways to explain the value of DeFi and protect the rights of the software devs who make it possible. We will continue to advance DeFi’s cause in the halls of Congress, the meeting rooms of regulatory agencies, and courtrooms across America.
