#61 - Justin Mezzell: The Art of NFTs and Web3 Business Opportunities

Our guest on today’s podcast is Justin Mezzell, one of the most credible leaders in the NFT community. He is the Co-Founder of Proof and Moonbirds and the creative mind behind the Moonbirds NFT collection. Previously to Moonbirds, he also Co-Founded and continues to run a project on Solana called Grim Syndicate.

Justin and I touched upon a number of different topics around NFTs, building new cultures, and most importantly we discussed why women-led NFT projects seem to have a relatively harder time taking off. I shared my ideas with him on how I plan to build allyship between men, women and people of other diverse backgrounds to build an inclusive business model. 

I hope you will find this episode as insightful and enjoyable as I did.
