About — Kedaro

Daniela Gandorfer, PhD, MSc.

CEO — Tech Governance & Strategic Partnerships

Daniela’s background spans fields that rarely share a room: quantum physics, literature, and a master’s in financial engineering from LSE. The breadth isn’t incidental — it’s the source of the thinking. She applied that combined rigour to the intersection of finance, law, and emerging technology, and conceived Kedaro and Breayz as systems long before they existed as products. The LoPh Lab, which she founded, is where the research behind that work lives. Multiple international awards — including the Young Scientist Award, Austrian Blockchain recognition, UKRI and World Omosiroi prizes — suggest the field caught up with her thinking rather than the other way around.

Danielle Wildermuth, LL.M.

CFO — Compliance & Operations

There are people who understand financial structure, and people who understand legal accountability, and people who know how to operate under genuine pressure. Danielle is unusual for having all three — and for the very different places each one came from. Her LL.M. in international commercial dispute resolution, completed at Westminster with Distinction, is the academic foundation. Years working M&A and post-acquisition compliance is where she learned how deals hold or fall apart in practice. Before that came International Affairs and Security Policy at George Washington University, and a commission into the US Army through Georgetown — where she learned that structures which hold up under pressure are always designed in from the start, never corrected for later. Breayz was built with that understanding in the room from day one.

Zulaikha Ayub, MDesS, MA

CMO — Product & Design

Zulaikha was making the invisible visible before Breayz existed — as a designer, researcher, and educator whose work in defense security infrastructure had long circled the same question: how do you map systems most people never see, and make their stakes legible to the people they affect? Trained as an architect and designer at Cooper Union, Harvard, and Princeton, her practice has always tracked the relationship between data, space, and the stories people tell about their environments — curating exhibitions on air and breath, building NFT collections around environmental data, speaking at SXSW and re:publica Berlin about turning complex information into something people can actually feel ownership over. When Kedaro was taking shape, she wasn’t a creative director looking for a brief. She was someone who’d already been working the same problem from the inside. As Co-Director and Chief Creative of the LoPh Lab, she makes sure complexity is never a reason to disengage.

Kedaro builds infrastructure for value that existing systems don’t account for.
