Delegate Proposal - Nick Almond
Summary
I am Head of Governance at Jito and I am broadly responsible for supporting Jito DAO and its members. My role encompasses supporting the development of Jito’s governance practices and supporting delegates to advance proposals that materially advance the goals of the Jito Network and its products. A significant workstream this year is focussed on value accrual and developing a Jito governance framework that maintains its agility and builds specialist domains of practice, whilst working within the constraints of the current era of DAO tooling.
I am a Physicist by background and have spent more than ten years working in academia across mathematics, cryptography, governance design and learning theory. I have worked in DAOs full time since 2020 and have developed both DAO tooling and a number of in practice governance frameworks. I also specialise in token engineering and cryptoeconomics.
My Involvement with Drift
I am relatively new to the Solana ecosystem, focussing primarily on the Ethereum DAO ecosystem for the last several years. However, I see Drift as being a crucial component of this network and I am looking to build a strong aliance between this DAO and Jito DAO.
I am willing to support the Drift ecosystem and this DAO with my experience and knowledge as a delegate and think I can bring significant value to the governance system here.
