Please share any relevant experience in line with the council’s responsibilities and scope.
Professionally, I have experience running my own Real Estate business. That includes communication, negotiating, and management of teams. It also includes managing escrow accounts and finances which would directly translate into the responsibilities with the DAO Treasury. In addition to completing a Bachelor’s Degree, I also served as Greek Council President and Student Congress Senator at my University.
What do you believe are the DAO’s most pressing priorities, and how would you contribute to them if elected?
I believe the DAO has two pressing priorities. The first is implementing Rare Protocol with other NFT marketplaces and blockchains. The DAO is currently already working on that as outlined in this RFC, and I think we should continue in this direction. I would help provide my experiences as an artist to explain which chains we should build on first. With the number of other blockchains and EVM Layer 2s, we must build on the best ones.
I also think we have a great foundation with SuperRare and must continue improving that platform. Specifically with onboarding new artists and collectors. The current process for onboarding new artists is clunky and does not scale to a wide audience. It is also very centralized which is the opposite of what we want as a DAO. Streamlining that process while keeping high-quality art and artists, is crucial to SuperRare and Rare Protocols’ success. Onboarding new collectors is also very important for long-term growth. As a DAO we must key in on marketing, ads, and other tactics so that we keep seeing new collectors in the marketplace.
