genetically modified organism. synbio PhD. friend of bacteria. I make /synbio vids 🧬, co-host /science 👩🏽‍🔬, building /teaparty ☕️ 

Introduced to crypto in 2016-2017. ERC-20 tokens (ICOs) were the hype. Got interested in DEX’s (back then ppl used one called EtherDelta) and self-custody.

Discovered CryptoKitties and CryptoVoxels in 2017-2018 which lead to discovery of OpenSea and NFTs. 

Then became curious about DAOs and tokenized communities.
