Current Board Roles

Silo Markets — Advisory Board Member
The first platform that lets customers earn points on their stocks, ETFs, and bonds. Financial
Institutions have long been incentivized to profit from your investments rather
than creating an environment that lets you grow long-term wealth.

Provided strategic advisory support during critical growth and financing periods, leveraging capital
markets relationships, stakeholder alignment expertise, and independent guidance to help
leadership navigate complex operational and go-to-market challenges.

Desync AI — Advisory Board Member
An AI-driven data infrastructure platform organizing institutional datasets
into structured, searchable intelligence

Served as a trusted advisor to the founding team, helping shape strategic messaging,
investor materials, and business positioning during the company’s formative stages.
Leveraged decades of market and operational experience to provide practical guidance,
simplify complex concepts, and support long-term growth initiatives.

Visionary Philanthropy Group (501c3) — Advisory Board Member
A 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization focused on workforce development, technology training,
and second chances through pathways to legitimate, meaningful work. Founded by
formerly incarcerated entrepreneur and advocate Nyene Baker, VPG’s mission is to
empower at-risk youth, returning citizens, and underserved communities by providing
technology and workforce training that promote long-term self-sufficiency and stability.
The organization is currently pursuing approval as a licensed Private Career School in New Jersey.

I have supported VPG across strategic communications, fundraising, and organizational
development — including contributing to website messaging and positioning,
assisting with relationship-building and donor outreach, and providing ongoing
guidance during key stages of institutional growth. Most recently, I spent time on-site
with the leadership team following New Jersey’s approval, advancing VPG’s
progression toward becoming an approved Private Career School, supporting the next
phase of workforce training and educational development initiatives.
