I’ve been part of Cardano since 2022.
Started in NFTs, wandered into DeFi, and eventually landed in governance.
I didn’t plan to end up here—I just stayed.
Because I care. And I’m not done yet.
Since last year, I’ve stood in two different Intersect committee elections.
I didn’t win.
But I stayed involved.
Joined working groups, took notes, raised points, helped push things over the line.
Because titles don’t define contribution—the work does.
Most of my contributions have been in non-technical areas:
strategy, communication, structure.
Not because I couldn’t learn the tech, but because someone had to focus on everything else.
Turns out, those parts matter too.
I’m CBCA certified.
Not a dev, not a founder, not from a big org.
Just someone who shows up, puts in the hours, and wants this chain to live up to its values.
That should be enough to have a voice—but often… it isn’t.
Some groups I joined made real progress.
Others fell apart when people left halfway.
Sometimes we found bigger problems while looking for solutions.
But I never left—because the community still deserves better.
Now I’m standing for the Intersect Board.
Not for clout.
But because I’ve seen what works and what doesn’t—and I want to help fix it from the inside, before it’s too late.
If you’ve been in Cardano over the past 3 years and felt unheard, left behind, or just confused by how it all works… I see you. I’ve been there.
That’s who I want to represent.
This isn’t a perfect campaign. I’m not promising magic.
But I’ll be present. I’ll listen. I’ll speak up—even when it’s inconvenient.
Because someone has to.
And maybe it’s time that “someone” isn’t from the usual crowd.
Vote Gintama — For the builders between the lines.
