Bio
Muhanad Mahmoud
Edwin is an excellent leader and manager who I have reported to him for about a year. As a global consulting lead, Edwin managed a team of talented consultants with diverse and broad experiences and skillsets. He motivated me and many in the team with critical thinking, sparking creative ideas and spreading positive energy to keep everyone focused to excel in what needs to be achieved and to go above and beyond. Despite a relatively short period of time, Edwin is an inspiration to me and I feel lucky to have worked under his guidance. His leadership style and being an active listener in one-to-one sessions and internal and external meetings plus his expertise in blockchain & Web3 technologies will make him a great leader to any organization that he lands in. I highly recommend Edwin.

Edwin has always been a pleasure to work with and I cannot recommend him highly enough for any leadership role. He has consistently gone above and beyond in his duties, demonstrating a vast array of skills including research, client-facing, team collaboration, leadership, transparency advocacy, data-driven decision-making, and even a great sense of fun and enthusiasm for blockchain technology. His technical expertise and industry knowledge are key factors in our success. He is also very client-facing and has great interpersonal skills which enable him to navigate tricky conversations with ease. On top of that, Edwin could easily be relied upon to motivate, inspire, and collaborate with his peers.
