Michelle founded MWQPR, one of the earliest growth-hacking and social-media-focused brand and communications agencies, and successfully exited the business in 2013, before growth became a category and before social became table stakes. From there, she moved deliberately to the next frontier.For more than a decade, Michelle has operated at the frontlines of digital assets, crypto, and fintech, joining companies before markets were formed, infrastructure existed, or regulation was clear. She was an early team member at Bitreserve (now Uphold) and the first executive hire at Taxbit, joining pre-seed and pre-revenue and helping shape what would become one of the most influential compliance platforms in the space.Digital Future Studio exists because the most consequential moments in a company’s trajectory happen before consensus, when regulation, innovation, AI, and narrative collide.
At Digital Future, we operate in that tension. We embed as an extension of leadership teams, bringing fractional expertise, curated operators, and deep relationships to move with clarity, speed, and precision. This is not advisory from the sidelines. It is a hands-on partnership designed to shift trajectories and create categories.
Whether you are scaling your first product, entering a new market, navigating regulatory inflection points, or repositioning your brand at the top of the stack, you need more than strategy. You need a partner who sees around corners, understands momentum, and knows how to turn insight into impact.
