All writingAbout
I'm Joe Wu — a builder and operator. My path ran from consulting, into hands-on tech implementation, then Web3 advisory, and now marketing leadership in AI infrastructure — working these days across the US and Asia. Today I'm CMO at Aethir, a decentralized GPU cloud company building infrastructure for AI. I hold undergraduate and graduate degrees from Cornell.
