Why are you running for the Community Council?
- I’ve been through the 0 to 1 process more times than I can count and have a very clear understanding of the startup puzzle. At a smaller, more micro scale, I believe these insights will enable me to build a grants system for Doodlebank grants that will be efficient and impactful relative the greater Doodlebank goals
- As a career entrepreneur, I have an implicit understanding of the challenges implied when creating something from scratch, and have the empathy needed to both mentor and amplify the folks who will give their time and energy to bring Doodlebank proposals to life
- I have a vested interest to see the Doodlebank’s funds be used as wisely, efficiently and creatively as possible, having felt frustrations as a community maker myself, being unclear on what to build and/or having my hands tied when came the time to pass a proposal, which proved a herculean effort. I’d like future generations of Doodlebank proposals to be more straightforward, with a greater chance for success both pre- and post-proposal.
- I love the Doodles and I’m interested in making Doodlebank a more attractive destination for talented individuals who want to contribute their efforts to amplify the Doodles value proposition through those talents.
