Summary
Leo Guinan is an entrepreneurial software leader and systems thinker with 11 years of experience building developer-facing platforms and new economic models. He blends hands-on engineering (senior roles at Copy.ai and Cardinal Health) with founder-level strategy—launching DeFiNet, MetaSPN, Idea Nexus Ventures, and a Conscious Economy Fund to rethink coordination, incentives, and creator finance. Leo designs diagnostics, workshops, and frameworks that make invisible coordination games visible, and teaches those ideas publicly as a professor at Build In Public University. Known for pragmatic platform work (Airflow and Jupyter operationalization) and a flair for unconventional product narratives, he pairs technical rigor with imaginative storytelling—currently running a human-centered internet storefront operated by an anthropomorphized AI cat. Based in Lancaster, Ohio, he holds an MS in Software Engineering and focuses on transparency, education, and humane economic alternatives enabled by AI.
