A Harvard MBA dropout and former product lead at Tencent, Tascha previously founded Alpha Finance Lab, where she scaled DeFi products to over $3B in usage. But it was her realization that the complexity of DeFi was leaving too many behind that sparked her vision for INFINIT. Her expertise lies at the intersection of AI, blockchain, and user-centric product design—a rare combination that positions her uniquely to comment on the future of finance.
Tascha’s global experience spans investment banking in San Francisco and London, high-growth tech in Asia, and venture-backed startups. As a Thai-born, Silicon Valley–shaped founder, she brings a culturally diverse perspective to topics such as women in Web3, building trust in emerging technologies, and innovating in Southeast Asia’s fast-growing digital economy.
Her story—turning down Harvard to follow her conviction, scaling a DeFi platform during a market boom, and now building AI-driven platform for the next generation of financial access—offers a compelling look into what it really takes to lead innovation at the edge of tech.
As a podcast guest, Tascha speaks with clarity and curiosity on the future of decentralized finance, AI’s role in wealth empowerment, and how founders can create impact by making cutting-edge tech usable for the mainstream.
