Act IThe short version
Spaces most people will not touch
I build, represent and grow projects in spaces most people will not touch: decentralized finance, regenerative medicine, legal cannabis, high-risk commerce and artificial intelligence. Over the past decade I have raised capital, brought in partnerships at international conferences, launched live products on mainnet, and run my companies from a base in Tbilisi, Georgia.
I understand the infrastructure of a project well enough to represent it accurately in a room with partners or investors, and I know the rules well enough to keep the marketing out of trouble. That combination is what Vitality Agency sells.
Off the clock I am also an actor, which is why the theme song in the footer plays on a golden stage and a pair of theatre masks hangs on the home page. Many faces, one standard.

Act IVOn the record
Speaking, the podcast and the base
DeFi Expectations
I have hosted DeFi Expectations since March 2021, covering decentralized finance, policy, artificial intelligence and offshore structure. I have spoken at ETH Tbilisi and represented projects at Stellar Meridian in Rio de Janeiro.
Notes from the same conversations end up on the Liberty Blog.
Why Tbilisi
Georgia is a practical base: quick, inexpensive company formation, a clear corporate tax model and a growing builder community. I run my own companies here and help founders who want to do the same, alongside their own tax advisers.
Start with Georgia or the Cayman Islands.
