About

Claudia Haddad

I'm a product manager at Coinbase, where I lead product for chat, mini apps, and AI agents on Base — Coinbase's blockchain network with millions of users.

Before that, I launched crypto earning products, built gamification systems that drove 6x year-over-year growth, and led the migration of millions of Coinbase Pro users to a new trading platform.

I studied Cognitive Science (Computation & Cognition) at the University of Pennsylvania with a minor in Consumer Psychology & Marketing from The Wharton School. I'm passionate about making complex technology feel simple and accessible.
