My reasons for wanting to be a delegate: I have been a delegate at Optimism 🔴 since the inception of the token house and served on it's grants council from the start. I have seen the progression of governance at Optimism, things that worked, and things that failed. My goal is to bring my experience to ZKSync governance and help cross-pollinate governance knowledge between the Optimism and ZKSync, while helping both systems become better to grow the pie for everyone.

My view on the ZK Credo: I am 100% aligned with the ZK Credo, and pushing forward individual sovereignty is my goal.

My skills + areas of expertise: Grants Programs, DAO Governance, incentives systems, community organizing. I also have a technical background and many years of experience writing code.

Disclosures/Conflicts: I am a top delegate for Optimism, however I view this as a positive, as I am planning to bring that experience with me to help improve governance here as well.
