For me, Web3 is more fun than video games. While my friends play games in their free time, I thrive in the world of Web3. It's that …

Recently, I've been jumping on calls with amazing builders, creators, and artists. One guy asked me why I'm supporting minority artists.

One year ago today, Gary Vee gave me this powerful message: "Patience." I've focused on that this past year. Now, I have my own DAO and I'm supporting minority artists. Can't wait to see you again, Gary!

People in NYC told me my English was perfect. 3 yrs ago, I came to Canada to be able to speak English and meet great people in the web3. Obviously, it wasn't easy. But I didn't give up.
