My name is Ashley Wright and  I am a Blockchain and Crypto educator. As a woman of colour who has been in this space since 2016, I strive to be an example for those that look like me or relate to me. 

I am the founder of Blacks on Blockchain, a community dedicated to increasing the representation and knowledge of black individuals in the cryptocurrency, NFT, and blockchain spaces. With this grant, I aim to host events and workshops that provide education and opportunities for our community to thrive in these industries.

As a recognized leader in the blockchain community, I aim to make an impact and create more founders, developers, and leaders from diverse communities. In addition to my community work with Blacks on Blockchain, I also run a 7-week crypto academy, Crypto Babes, a global community educating and connecting women+ in web3 and authored the youth crypto & NFTs workbook.
