As a product designer/manager with full-stack development skills, Severin participates in the entire design and development process from user research through product launch.

During web development projects, he manages the product backlogs and frequently works on front-end development and database design.

Severin considers himself a technologist enthusiastic about building data-driven systems that improve lives. His love for web application design led him to pursue his undergraduate education in multimedia design and computer science, and his interest in efficient project execution led him to pursue his graduate education in project management and organizational dynamics. Day-to-day, you can find him listening to design, agile, development (JavaScript and PHP), and product management podcasts while on his morning and evening drives or reading user experience journals during his coffee breaks.

Miho has always had a passion for working as a global speaking expert and engaging with audiences in and outside Japan.

She started out in interpretation and translation after honing her foreign language skills in English and French. Her subsequent career was as a radio broadcaster in central Japan.

However, it soon became clear that Miho's biggest strength was her public speaking skills and her ability to connect people from different cultural and language communities. After numerous opportunities to work as a multilingual emcee for weddings and corporate events, she has been presenting, speaking, and hosting ever since. Working both on screen and stage, today Miho represents her global corporate clients and effectively communicates their key messages to their audiences and customers in a warm and personable manner with an infectious passion and energy.

She is also a voice-over talent and a Roger Love Method Coaching certified speaking voice coach trained directly by Roger Love, America's No.1 celebrity voice coach. Her mission is to help ESL(English as Second Language) speakers develop their voice and use it to attract and serve their ideal clients so they can increase their influence and presence.

David Haas

David Haas

After spending nearly a decade pursuing a career in the music business (Interscope Records; Paradigm Talent Agency; GALANTIS), David moved into tech in 2021 following the temporary (but severe) impacts of COVID-19 on the music business.

As he pursued a new direction in tech, one question formed at the forefront of his journey: how can we elevate principles of helping people – particularly, creatives (who in the past, were often not equitably credited for their work) – in this new, rapidly evolving era of tech?

A longtime proponent of decentralization; supporting the artists pushing culture forward; and new to the rise of NFTs – Haas found himself with a new question. With billions (more) in projected revenues on the table for Web3, how will we approach accountability when developing sustainable practices, cultures and communities in this new world?

My career was in the music industry as a producer. It was in this role that I began to understand the socio-economic value of creative content, mainly in developing infrastructures, which I presented a TED Talk on. It was through this scope that I started down the blockchain rabbit-hole.
By 2020, I delved deep into the Web3 space. I embarked on my Masters in Law, as I knew it was an important sector in Web3 with new technologies needing modern legal frameworks and innovative interpretations of current law. My dissertation was on blockchain technology in IP law. I also studied Blockchain Strategy through Oxford University, earning myself a diploma.
In 2022 I was included in the list of Top 333 Web3 Content Creators on Linkedin and continue to build, connect and innovate in the Web3 space.
