Detailed thoughts on how you would solve these two problem spaces
Contributor Alignment - Promote transparency for remuneration - Standardize guild and role compensation - Create more granular global compensation guidelines (eg instead of 1000 BANK/hr) - Provide guidance for projects and guilds to distribute funds (when to use Coordinape, when to use Team Set Salaries, when to set hourly rates, when to use KPIs) - Tie compensation to USD value (perhaps a 30 or 90 day moving average) - Redesign the guest pass system - Rethink monthly Coordinape rounds to be more equitable Strategic Prioritization - Work to create a meta-level strategy that will inevitably lead to sustained economic growth. At the very least, that means (1) Building out our media products to be revenue generators and consolidate operations into a broader Media Department (2) Membership perks to drive value for the BANK token. - Once the meta strategy is defined, create systems of funding that allow for community members to propose new projects, but evaluate them in reference to the meta-strategy - Have multiple avenues for funding, instead of a single grants committee for different degrees of funding requests. This would basically mean having multiple "tiers" of funding, each tier requiring further community consensus and signalling. Part of this would involve decentralizing the grants committee into a body of delegated voters - Standardize projects that we've already funded, but operate differently (eg. Newsletter team vs International Media Nodes) - Create ways to evaluate KPIs to inform future funding requests - Create a template SOP for any project that receives sustained funding for the DAO (eg. What does BanklessDAO gain in exchange for funding a project and what does a project have rights do from BanklessDAO)

Other obligations during Season 3
My only obligations are: 1. Ops Guild Coordinator - Working towards offloading these responsibilities, with the recently implemented Apprentice Program 2. BanklessHQ Newsletter Editor - This comes out to 10 hours a week or so.
Qualifications
Time at BanklessDAO: - I've been here since the beginning. I joined the DAO on May 4th and was the first person to take the leap and quit my job to work here. I've seen the DAO evolve before my eyes, which provides me with context for how the decisions we make going forward will best align with where we've come from. Past experiences: - Previous co-founder of a small professional services company - Previously Writers Guild Coordinator, Writers Guild Governance Coordinator, and currently Ops Guild Coordinator Skills: - Writer - Operator - Building frameworks that can scale - Detail-oriented Misc. - My greatest qualification is my reputation. The time I've spent at the DAO, the sacrifices I've made, and the leadership I've demonstrated have allowed others to put their trust in my judgment. I want to do what's best for the DAO and I've lived that truth for as long as I can remember. I'm here to build something that can change lives.
Reason for Applying
Reasons are threefold: The GSE program as a whole is an extension of the work I was trying to do in Season 2. I tried to solve some of these problems on my own (with small working groups) and realized that, as I pulled the thread, the scope of the problem far exceeded what I was capable of tackling on my own. As such, I proposed the GSE program. It's only natural that I apply! But more concretely, these broad & complex problem spaces excite me the most. They are where I have historically provided value to BanklessDAO by way of my various Brain Dumps and Seasonal Specification. I've already spent dozens of hours thinking, sketching, and talking through these two problem spaces.
