– Why you would be a good Steward of this working group?
|| Brief intro ||
I’m the founder of Namespace which is a platform that provides a suite of creative tools to help ENS name owners get the most out of their names! It aims to build a custom set of ENS management tools for different user groups (NFT communities, influencers, streamers, family management, etc.)
|| Why did I decide to join and build on ENS? ||
The reason why I decided to build on top of ENS (and apply today) is that I believe it’s one of the most well-thought-out protocols that currently exist in web3.
We at Namespace, besides our core focus, are actively exploring ways we can contribute to the ENS and Ethereum ecosystem as a whole in a public good manner and help speed up the adoption of ENS. From building L2 integrations (currently researching Arbitrum and ZKsync) to creating an open-source API with an industry-specific set of features to serve the different projects as best as possible with the goal to streamline ENS adoption among developers.
|| What makes me competent for this position? ||
I graduated with Bachelor’s in Computer Science and attended International Business school in Boston for my Master’s degree. I don’t place a lot of ‘value’ on traditional education systems but it’s worth mentioning as part of my background.
Since I come from the web2 startup world, for the past 9 years I have always been launching startups or around one, pitching competitions, mentoring teams, and have been an advisor to startups one of which gained worldwide recognition. To this day I’m blessed/cursed to be a builder therefore I’m constantly brainstorming ideas, solving problems in my head, working on interesting projects, and constantly flexing my idea brain muscle. I co-founded 2 startups and raised funds for 1 which is still active where I currently sit on board.
I was a community manager for 4 years, hosting and interviewing entrepreneurs, founders, and other successful people, which gives me the ability to navigate the conversation during calls and meetings.
I participated in almost every weekly ecosystem call for the last 3-4 months and understand how they are run. In the beginning, while I was studying ENS and participated in Discord, helping with answering questions.
I wrote an article called Meet ENS (meetENS.eth.limo) that we describe as an ‘all-encompassing knowledge base on the ENS’. I regularly refer new people there who want to learn about ENS.
|| To conclude ||
Being at the forefront of happenings and being the first one to see all the new projects and ideas that arrive in one of the best ecosystems in web3 space would be amazing! I can provide good feedback, I can connect people through my network, and help them get what they need.
Without a doubt, this would be a dream job for me. Or as Phoebe would say - ‘it’s like the mothership is calling you home.’ And that is why I want to apply.
Thank you.
