I wanted to nominate Wizard, so now I will reply to that nominating - I know this guy well to write here that he is the best one for that position - his communication skills with the cold-minded head and kindness are definitely what every community director needs to have!

My name is Ernest Sonyi and I am nominating myself for a Community Director position. I am 40 y/o MBA grad, currently living in southern Rhode Island USA (halfway between New York City and Boston), and work for a food import/sales/marketing company as a national sales manager. I am fascinated with anything crypto in general and with the NFT space in particular. I found myself creating a Dogeparty wallet shortly after re-launch and have been hooked ever since. Participating in the community has been such a great experience that I would love the opportunity to to contribute in this thought-leadership role with my real-world business acumen. As a director I would help to guide the organization to ensure that the foundation’s goals are achieved and that the views of the community in general are represented.

Hello, my name is Christian Burns and I would like to nominate myself for the role of Dogeparty Foundation Community Member.

This feels very strange to put myself out there for this role but I know that I have value to put towards the project in this capacity.

I am an American, born and raised in the Pacific Northwest. I am 47 years old with a wife and 9 children. I began my crypto journey in 2013, By 2014 became a user of counterparty, and was very excited about the launch of a counterparty fork on the Dogecoin Blockchain. I participated in the initial burn and created assets at the launch. When the project was abandoned I felt the loss but also had hopes that someday it would rise again.

A few years ago we had to spend our crypto reserves because of a family emergency. Earlier this year I started getting back into crypto again and making friends in the space. When I heard about the relaunch of Dogeparty I was so excited. While the space is growing, it is still so small compared with all the other crypto projects out there.

My goal will be to represent the community and push forward the Fun of Dogecoin and Functionality of the Dogeparty platform.

I would like to nominate Theo Goodman, who has been involved in the Counterparty project for many years, was a rare pepe scientist, and who runs a bunch of NFT auctions which focus primarily on Counterparty. Theo also recently ran an auction for a Dogeparty lot at NFT.nyc and raised funds which will be donated to the bern.

I believe Theo would be a valuable member to have on the Dogeparty Foundation and would help the project gain more users and grow the platform functionality with his leadership.

I would like to nominate Dana Lala for Dogeparty Foundation Community role on the Board.

She has been an active contributor in the raredoge space and has made some sick art. She has also mentioned that she would be willing to run. I look forward to hearing more about how she would contribute to the space.

Thanks Christain. So many good resumes here. Well I come from the land of early Pepes; Theo might remember me from those days. I always have fun engaging with communities like this. Back in 2017 I started taking pepecash at my bar as a way to honor the community lol. No one paid with it, but it’s the thought that counts. Not trying to milk this too hard but maybe I offer a unique perspective as a women. I don’t code or anything very technical but I have been involved in crypto for a long time and these smaller, up and coming, niche groups are my favorite. I currently work as a community manager for a large exchange and i went to a fancy college, pick me!

I’m nominating the absolute wreck that is myself, David Gillies.

As an Australian, we get classed as a group of arrogant beer-loving hillbillys, and let’s be honest I spend more time in the sun with a beer than I do actually working. Sometimes we come across as arrogant, but normally it’s because we only comment on subjects we know about through research and previous experience. When I do work for the man it’s either Project Managing, working between devs and clients as a Business Analyst, Social Media Manager, or blowing shit up out in the middle of the Pilbara. Nowadays I mainly work for myself doing a multiple of these jobs while consulting on upcoming crypto related projects.

My education ranges from high-level mining degrees to half-completed business information systems degrees, normally I get bored while studying and look for work while completing them, and instead of finishing the degree I just end up doing the job full time without it. FYI, this makes getting a new job in the field 10x harder. My sense of humour comes from the wide variety of experiences throughout my career and life, blue-collar humour can be seen in rare rejects like SNIFLER, and more white-collar humour with the likes of REDROCKIT. The cards made under my account fall under the “Broke N yoKeD” banner, which is a small group of us supporting each other on the struggles of life.
