Averi ☕️

Chief of Staff @espressosys 🫘

[Averi ☕️ @Averiii]

My blockchain/@EspressoSys journey/absolute cheesy cringe fest, you’ve been warned: 🚨

I fell into crypto after finding an incredible Austin based team (massive shoutout to @Ikigai_fund) in early 2022. The crazy world of blockchain opened up for me and I was locked in for life (y’all know what I mean).

I was so nervous to get back into the job market in 2023 after Ikigai (interview anxiety crew represent) but after speaking with @charleslu1, @jillgun, and @benafisch, I absolutely fell in love with the team and the shared vision for Ethereum/the world. 🌎

The whole Espresso team stunned me with their honesty, openness, and absolute down to earth kind hearts. 💕 you really can’t find this just anywhere. I love being mama bear chief of staff to all these smart, strong little beans 🫘 And genuinely feel happy to wake up every morning to build something real.

If you’ve ever had an interview with me, you’ve probably heard this cheesy speech before! But if you’ve ever met anyone on the Espresso team you likely know what I’m talking about 😊
END OF CHEESE 🧀 GO FOLLOW THE ESPRESSO TEAM, WE’RE GOING PLACES 🚀

"And a big part of my story is what I went through personally. I had cancer when I was 19. I actually self-diagnosed it. I’ve also had a near-death bike accident. My tattoos reflect that. They represent the pressure, the cracks, the imperfections. But also the idea that you can overcome all of it. That you can become something new.." @Crypto_Goblinz ❣️

“I didn’t plan any of this.

I studied biosciences, then did a master’s in infectious diseases and immunity. After that, I started a PhD in bioengineering, working on early detection systems for airborne viruses. It sounds impressive, but the truth is I only did it because I didn’t know what else to do. I got one of the best scholarships in the country, so I thought, why not.."

Cutie @jessyfries always bringing the best fries and overall content to this busy space 🍟🩶 so lovely connecting on a deeper level with this beautiful human!

“I noticed pretty quickly that crypto was a really male-dominated space.

When I first joined, a lot of people were saying they were ‘in it for the culture,’ but it didn’t always feel that way to me. My background is in fine arts, so I came in wanting to actually create. I started making NFTs and came up with this phrase, ‘in it for the fries.’ It was my version of that idea, but more playful, more me.."

@coinempress you're so lovely!! Was so fun connecting, can't wait to see you at other conferences

[Averi ☕️ @Averiii]

We're BACK with some absolutely stunning humans coming to your timeline. I had the absolute pleasure of getting to know @coinempress at EthCC in Cannes and she's simply a beautiful, kind, clever human❣️

"I didn’t always know who I was supposed to be in this space.

The name coinempress actually came from ChatGPT. I described the kind of person I wanted to be, and it said I was someone people would trust and learn from. It felt strange at first, but it stuck. Now people recognize me by it, and I’ve kind of grown into that identity.."

Some of my favorite quotes from @EthCC week. Human connections in a tech heavy space, badass team member bonding, and community building - you can’t put a price on it! 

“Trust assumptions create a web that is ultimately unmanageable - Espresso helps simplify this web” - @ellierdavidson 

“Building miniature houses is something tangible that I can fully finish, which is not something you can usually say about crypto work, which is why I’m really drawn to it” - @neflorious 

“Some of the best technology in this space fails—not because it’s bad, but because no one told its story.” - @Crypto_Goblinz 

“SHE NEEDS A PAVLOVA” - guess who ;)

“Women do conferences different and we’re creating a space where they can have the conversations they actually want to have.” - @camski 

“This espresso event was hands down the best out of the whole week” - I don’t remember his name but I told him I’d quote him on it!! Tag yourself if you remember this at Pétanque!
