Motivations to Apply for Pyth Community Council:
Pyth has the best community I’ve seen in web3, a great product and an ambitious vision. I want to be a part of that and contribute to its long term success.

Analyst
One of my main ideas is to grow a “braintrust” of researchers who are passionate about Pyth, and would function as a resource for feedback and ideas.

Together, we would harness our collective insights to analyze narratives and trends (such as AI, RWA, DePIN), scrutinize other projects (including competitors), and brainstorm ideas for Pyth to grow and evolve in this rapidly changing landscape. Might be slightly idealistic, but the power of ideas should not be underestimated.

This also offers a different engagement model for community members (beyond fun and games - which are important and have their place), and would likely also increase the quantity and quality of contributions in the governance forum.

Impact Operations
I am keen to contribute in the area of education. As crypto adoption is only going to increase, Pyth can play a part in onboarding a new generation of users, while indoctrinating both new and existing users about how Pyth will be an indispensable pillar of the global financial system. I have some specific ideas of what this might look like - think “gamified, educational, campaigns, and possibly NFTs”.

Relevant Experience and Commitments:

  • Fellow at Wormhole, one of Pyth’s closest partners - leading educational initiatives there since mid-2024.
  • Over a decade of experience in both government and private sectors, with an educational background in business and finance.
  • Coming from Asia, I bring perspectives that would add greater diversity and balance to the council. This also allows me to better support Pyth communities in this region, where there is huge growth potential.
  • Active participant in the Pyth Governance Forum.
  • OIS Participant, Governance Staker, Pythenians Holder.
