Inspiration

I draw inspiration from the abuse of power and massive financial inequality happening in the world right now. There are people taking advantage of you, me and my kids. My kids will never be able to afford a house in Australia. For this, I am a massive proponent of web3 where we can take control of our own finances, and firmly believe this will be the great equalizer. A way for us to be on equal footing. I've come to Solana to help build this idea.

What it does

Me does interviews, reviews, community engagement with your team and offering a cohort of Solana power users. I do this simply with a camera, microphone and my time. Use me, but don't abuse me. No, I am not affiliated with FTX, SERUM or PSYOPTIONS. I am simply affiliated with the community.

Challenges we ran into

I ran into the initial challenge of realizing that some people are here for a quick buck or the 'ol rug. Part of my journey has been to learn how to say no to certain things. Part of the journey has also been fruitful in teaching myself new skills coming from a completely different industry. I've taught myself multimedia skills, community engagement skills and basically how to participate in Solana while also helping it grow. Interviewing some of the recent solana hackathon winners, most of their advise revolved around the idea of BUILD FAST, SHIP & REITERATE. I'm currently going through this process myself, I've started building. I'm shipping right now and i continuously reiterate. Help me grow.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

I am incredibly proud of what I've achieved so far. I've been voted as the President of the Grape community creator Subdao, where I manage the creative aspects of this protocol. My work though expends well past grape into the entire solana ecosystem. I help protocols with exposure and connecting individuals with who they need to speak to.

What we learned

Time is incredibly valuable. You cannot do everything you want. Much like SBF's affective altruism, you have to dedicate your time to something that will yield the most results, In my case. its Solana right here.
