Alignment Statement
I spend every day thinking about and existing in the Rocket Pool ecosystem through my work and my personal interest in the protocol and community. For the majority of people inside and outside of Rocket Pool, I am ones of the faces of the community.
Conflict Statement
Almost all of my crypto holdings are in RPL and ETH with some small holdings of airdrops I have been given/farmed.
I was given an OG airdrop of the DIVA token that is currently locked and valueless. I am also a Diva voting delegate. However, my interest in the Diva ecosystem has waned significantly in recent months, and I am not spending any time in that community anymore. I will likely sell my DIVA airdrop at the first opportunity I get.
I am a member of the pDAO’s grants management committee, and I have served there since its inception. I do not believe this will act as any kind of impediment to my work on the IMC.
Identity Statement
I have met approx 100 people from the Rocket Pool community at meet ups in Chicago and at ETH Denver in 2023 and 2024. Many people in the community know my full name, my address, and my phone number. However, I would prefer this information is not publicly disclosed.
I worked as a teacher for 7 years and then worked at a university in an admin position. However, for the last 21 months, my full time job has been working on Rocket Fuel - a daily news show focusing on Rocket Pool. I would like to continue with this work for as long as the GMC deems it valuable.
Contribution Statement
I contribute to Rocket Pool everyday through making Rocket Fuel. I have also been a member of the GMC since its inception. Rocket Pool is my full time job.
If chosen for the IMC, I would love to help by being the treasurer or helping talk to potential partner protocols about integrations and partnerships. If nothing else, I would be happy to help verify and signing transactions promptly.
