Objectives

As a Cardano representative, I will vote on governance proposals in accordance with my values, outlined below (listed from most general principle to least). 1. Integrity 2. Freedom 3. Social Good 4. Technical Soundness 5. Economic Soundness 6. Effective Discourse 7. Transparency 8. Flexibility Note that the current accepted governance metadata specification allows only limited space, so you can find a longer explanation of what these values mean to me on [my personal blog](https://www.314pool.com/post/drep)

Motivation

My motivation to become a DRep is rooted deeply in my objectives and value system seen above. Additionally, I have an active interest in seeing the Cardano ecosystem evolve to it's best form under the guidance of a multi-faceted ecosystem of experts and enthusiasts, and after 4 years deeply embeddded in the ecosystem, I feel it is my obligation to contribute to that. As for why I am registering now, rather than earlier, it took several months to distill my beliefs down into a form I was proud to stand behind, and the Plomin hard fork seemed a fitting milestone to commit those beliefs to a tangible form.

Qualifications

I believe I am qualified to represent the subset of Cardano community members who share my values because of my long history of involvement in the community, my technical expertise, my rich history of contributions across multiple projects and open source tools, my effective communication skills, and my passion for the work that I do. As before, you can find a longer and more detailed outline of why these things qualify me as a DRep [at my personal blog](https://www.314pool.com/post/drep)
