Transparency is one of my core values, meaning successes and failures should be shared openly and accountability for choices is necessary. This cannot happen of the expense of kindness and taking other people's situations and perspectives into consideration is crucial.

My objective is to keep the treasury safe from unnecessary spending, and help grow Cardano into a blockchain that businesses will choose to create products on. I will support defining budgets and monetary policies that are in the best interest of the overall blockchain health and contribute by connecting people and processes. On technical matters, I will vote on those I have knowledge about, and abstain where I do not feel confident I can make an informed decision.

I have been a stakepool operator of the pool HAZEL since 5/2021 and have built a variety of communication and integration tools that are widely used on Cardano. I have worked on web development projects since the late 90s and have extensive knowledge of Web 2.0 technologies and APIs, as well as wide awareness and knowledge of the tooling and infrastructure solutions on Cardano. I have also worked on Enterprise technology and software for the last 15 years, and have been involved with large scale businesses and compliance. My experience covers both the technical perspective as well as the process definition side through my work on a leading Business Process Management platform.
