Summary
Aaron Mayer is a mission-driven founder and operator with eight years of experience building organizations at the intersection of crypto, social impact, and effective altruism from San Francisco. He leads Impact Labs, which trains engineers to apply technical skills for social good, and previously co-ran Open Heart Capital, a crypto fund that donates its performance allocation to high-impact charities.
