Hi! I’m Maz, and I love to build things! I've worked across software, AI, data & research, crypto, sustainability and VC, focusing on impact, democratizing finance and consumer tech.

My work has always revolved around unlocking new use cases for emerging tech, whether in web3 infrastructure, sustainable manufacturing and commerce, decentralized governance, AI-generated models and agents, and creator-led economies.

I write extensively about emerging technologies, coordination mechanisms, and economic incentives, focusing on how we make these systems work in practice—not just as theoretical models.

I am currently working at Agora and deeply appreciate the team's vision to build towards the participatory layer of the web, encouraging governance where onchain communities have the unique opportunity to set the tone and be the example.

A message to the community and ecosystem: Decentralized governance is pivotal. While the promise of distributed decision-making offers transparency and inclusivity, practical challenges persist. I'm here to ensure we build tangible things and to iterate on learnings from
