Kelsey has been educating and advising major brands on integrating digital collectives since she discovered DapperLab’s brainchild crypto kitties at the ETHwaterloo hackathon in 2017. The future possibilities for digital collectibles in brand became limitless after she stayed up all night breeding cats (aka minting NFTs) on the blockchain. By morning, she could clearly see the future impact on IP, fashion, entertainment and most importantly - social good. She introduced her friend and mentor, legendary VC Bill Tai (@KiteVC) who made a major bet on what is now one of the world’s largest web3 companies: Dapper Labs. Kelsey is a proud investor in Dapper Labs, a loyal fan of FLOW, and a major collector of Barbie Boss Beauties on the blockchain.

Case Study:
Web3 meets world’s global HQ for peace: Boss Beauties x the United Nations
Kelsey Cole has been working closely with the United Nations since 2018 helping various departments and organizations within the org understand how they can work with new technologies to forward the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals.
In fall of 2021, Kelsey met Lisa Mayer, co-founder and CEO of Boss Beauties, the premiere web3 company for women’s empowerment. It was work-love at first sight. The two immediately started to dream up the ways they could work together to bring their shared mission of achieving gender equality by way of new technology - and connecting Lisa to the UN was a tie for number one with the one and only Barbie.
As the new year rolled around and 2022 brought a myriad of global changes, it became clear that the work of the UN’s most recognizable figures needed to become the spotlight of the equality campaign: Women in Peacekeeping.
March 2022, the world is still recovering from Covid lockdowns the UN is no exception. With the United Nations New York Headquarters closed to delegates - the best way to launch the partnership was to bring the collection and celebration into the Metaverse. (see below)
