Alisa March is Lead Designer at Consensys, Gitcoin Spoke. Formerly at Morningstar, HelloWallet, Aol, Co-founder DCDB. She is focusing on the end to end user experience while serving as the brand steward as we grow Gitcoin, to cultivate the platform alongside the growing community of talented designers building on Gitcoin. My background is in design with a combination of brand and product. I’ve worn many hats at both small startups and large scale corporations working in a variety of spaces including messaging, media, and finance. I enjoy solving complex design problems and am very excited to see how I can help bring simplification to the blockchain experience through Gitcoin’s open source bounty platform. I was intrigued by the idea of Gitcoin as I investigated and participated in bounties during my free time. Like others, I got to know the passionate members of the Gitcoin community as well as Kevin Owocki through building the platform. Furthermore, I highly believe in the underlying values of helping developers connect, grow, and learn while giving them the power to control their financial destiny through open source. Gitcoin’s goals are ambitious and noble — part of the reason I got hooked.
