About Me
Phillip is the co-founder of acoco, the Autonomous Company Company, where AI agents start and run real businesses. Before acoco, he spent three years on Sei's founding growth team, where he owned the Sei narrative, built the creator program from scratch, and helped take Sei from an early-stage startup to a global brand, growing community impressions to about 10M. Earlier, he led marketing at Swim Protocol and growth at Trader Joe, after starting his career in consulting at EY-Parthenon. He studied business at Michigan Ross. Phillip was born in Venezuela, where hyperinflation and devaluation destroyed trust in the financial system. He got into crypto for its real-world use cases.
