If you've made it this far, you're likely curious as to how my background in Telecommunications engineering fits into my current business.

You see, being a tech enthusiast is an integral part of who I am. 

I have a passion for learning about innovative solutions, with a particular interest in IoT protocols and Satellite communications. I possess coding skills as well as the ability to create electronic circuits.

Now, I know what you're thinking: "What does this have to do with design?" 
While it may not seem related, I recognized the potential to leverage these skills in the Web3 space.

As a university professor, I often found myself teaching my students about Starlink and other technical topics. At the same time, I began freelancing and creating unique designs for clients around the world.

Despite being referred to as the "youngest teacher," I loved my job.

However, in 2018, I discovered Bitcoin and became in love with it.
One day I decided to focus all my efforts on designing for Web3 business. 

So I did.

And I won’t lie – turning my passion into a business felt incredibly good.
Web3 is the perfect match for creativity and tech.

So, how does being a "University Professor" make me a better Designer than I am today? 
1. It's easier for me to understand the technicalities of Web3.
2. I learnt how to explain complex things easily.
3. It's me being me. Authenticity rules!

I just redeemed 200 Tickets on Tunnl for at least $2000

If you want to get yours too, here is exactly what to do.

Tunnl is the platform that gives you access to quality crypto leads and high value engagement without draining your wallet. 

And the part I love the most is this… it pays creators to engage.


It is literally the easiest tool right now for brands that want reach at a cheap rate and for creators who want to earn fairly.


I tested it for a simple shoutout. For 50 dollars I got:

- 2588 impressions
-3.9 percent engagement rate
-8 new followers on Kaito

And this came from an account with only 360 followers that is not even fully active.

An influencer with 10k followers would easily charge 250 dollars for these numbers. 

Tunnl delivered it for a fraction of that.

How do you get your Ticket?

Sign up using this link. It is free:
https://lnkd.in/e2zGzQ7y

The more you use Tunnl the more you earn tickets.

You get 5 tickets for every 1 USDC spent.

Then you redeem your tickets and get your rewards in USDC.

We are in the attention economy era. 

Most platforms take your attention for free. Tunnl is one of the first rewarding users who actually give attention.

Web3 Marketing Strategist | Building the marketing playbook for web3 founders/brands who want to be known.

Creators are eating big on X payouts and InfoFi, but on Tunnl, they’ll eat even bigger.

I’ve used it, and here’s the truth you actually need.

Tunnl gives marketers access to verifiable, high-quality engagement on X.

Imagine launching an awareness tweet and the only people who react are users who follow your account, meet real activity thresholds, and have solid Kaito yaps or tweet scores.

I call that quality control by Tunnl

In simple terms, your marketing budget finally lands inside a real pool of people who match your target audience, not random noise.

Here’s how creators can maximize this:

1. Participate in Campaigns

Meet the criteria for each project, follow the task guidelines, and position yourself for the locked-in rewards. If your work is solid, you will stand out.

2. Redeem Your Tickets

You earn tickets by spending USDC on the platform. These tickets put you in line for prize pools and bigger creator incentives.

More campaigns.
More chances.
More earnings.

And more visibility to the projects that care about quality creators.

If you’re a creator or marketer on X, Tunnl is where the next wave of big payouts will happen.

Start positioning yourself early.
