I published a book:
NFT School For Artists
An Artist’s Guide To Creating And Selling Non-Fungible Tokens, Building A Community, And Making A Living With Digital Royalties Even if You Have No Experience

The book helps artists understand and use NFT technology in their lives and work. I also do one-on-one consulting on this topic.
I love talking to artists and helping them to get into space.

Three things I believe in are:
- Telling your story
- Personal Branding
- Building a Community

This is the only true way you will ever be able to live off your art.

In 2023, I spoke at a conference - https://web3tales.io/ - NFT minting workshop.
In 2024, I spoke at the NFT NYC - https://bit.ly/4aQnu2K - on the topic of Ai, Art, and NFTs.
In 2025, I spoke at the NFT NYC - My topic was selected - An Artist's Guide on Building Community and Success.

I collect digital art as NFTs.

Looking forward to more opportunities to share my knowledge and vision :)
