Why do you want to serve as an Expert Evaluator for the Localism Fund?

I see the Localism Fund's mission to cement Ethereum as de facto infrastructure for political, economic, cultural, and ecological localism. I want to contribute my experience in mapping ecosystems, designing participatory systems, and mentoring projects to help strengthen the integrity and impact of locally-led funding programs.

My life's work revolves around building bridges between technology, nature, and society to foster radical cooperative systems. For over 8 years in web3, I have been researching, educating, and writing about the very systems this project aims to nurture: from grant-making and governance design to community empowerment and regenerative economics.

I see the Localism Fund as a giant, collaborative garden, and I’m the nerd who shows up with seeds and funky, custom tools to help everyone’s plants grow better.
