Join us in welcoming Zach Henderson, who was fortunate to build a small but successful real estate venture while in undergrad, and that afforded him the flexibility to explore a bit following graduation. After applying his industrial engineering degree in classic manufacturing roles for a brief stint, he moved into software implementation and ultimately product management for a large private healthcare IT company, continuing to grow the real estate company on the side.
After a 4-year paid degree in big tech, he went back to the entrepreneurial well and worked on various product and service startups spanning the real estate, healthcare, and cannabis industries. It was around this time in 2015 that his exploration into blockchain and cryptocurrencies would take shape.
Today, he is obsessed with learning and iterating as web3 grows at breakneck speeds. Why blockchain? Identifying the correct strategies in which to deploy the fundamental value of decentralization and non-custodial ownership of data presents a fascinating challenge, especially when considering the impact to the global power systems most disrupted.
