Introduction

Hello Steemians,

First of all, let me express my gratitude to the moderators of our beloved Steemit platform for choosing me as their representative during the year 2023. This opportunity presented itself thanks to a wise change in the method selection of representatives, abandoning the traditional criteria of country and affiliation in favor of more relevant criteria such as hard work and loyalty.

Over the past year, I have sought to live up to this selection by fully investing myself in various roles within the Steemit community. As a teacher at the SteemitCrypto academy, I shared my knowledge and contributed to the education of Steemians. As a curator on the Burn curation team, I worked to identify high-quality content to improve our users' posts. I also listened to the needs and concerns of the community, actively participating in numerous challenges.

It is with great satisfaction that I renew my candidacy to represent Steemit again. My goal is to highlight the efforts I have made within the platform and to develop my commitment in a more professional and qualitative way. This approach is motivated by the desire to contribute significantly to the growth and development of our community. I hope I can count on your support to continue this enriching adventure.

Active on the platform for at least 6 months.

In fact, reflecting on my journey within the platform, I can confidently assert that my activity has reached its zenith since my initiation more than three years ago into the Steemit Crypto Academy. The pivotal moment came with my selection as a representative for both the first and second halves of the year 2023. This invaluable experience has significantly contributed to the refinement of my skills in handling diverse responsibilities, be it as a regular user, an educator, or a curator.

Since my inception on the Steemit platform in August 2017, my commitment has been unwavering. I consistently strive to present content that is not only well-structured but also rich in substance. It is ingrained in my nature to deliver work that I am truly satisfied with. This commitment propels me to dedicate considerable effort to research and writing, ensuring that the end result is not only personally gratifying but also beneficial to the reader.

The experience gained through my multifaceted roles has been instrumental in honing my abilities, allowing me to approach challenges with a strategic mindset. Whether interacting with the community as a regular user, sharing knowledge as a teacher in the Steemit Crypto Academy, or curating content to enhance the overall quality of our platform, I have consistently strived for excellence.

Looking ahead, I am eager to continue this trajectory of growth and contribution. My dedication to maintaining high standards in both form and content remains unwavering, and I am committed to leveraging my skills and experience for the betterment of the Steemit community. I am grateful for the opportunities thus far, and I look forward to continued collaboration and progress within our dynamic and thriving community.

At least 17,500 own (non-delegated) SP

Regarding my Steem Power wallet, I am pleased to share that it has surpassed 105,000 SP, a testament to my strong belief in investing in the Steemit ecosystem and my unwavering confidence in its long-term success. This substantial balance reflects not only my commitment to the platform but also my dedication to actively contribute to its growth and development.

From the early stages of my involvement, I eagerly participated in initiatives such as #club5050, demonstrating my commitment to community-building and collaborative efforts. Through my active engagement and support, I swiftly achieved #club100 status, and I am proud to maintain my #club5050 status. This ongoing commitment is a crucial element in realizing my aspiration of becoming one of the influential stakeholders, or "whales," within the Steemit platform in the coming years.

My investment in Steem Power goes beyond mere numbers; it represents a belief in the transformative power of decentralized platforms and the potential for positive impact within our community. As I continue to actively engage, contribute, and support initiatives that align with the platform's growth, I am optimistic about the collective success we can achieve together.

A reputation of at least 70

Undoubtedly, reputation is a priceless asset in our interactions and relationships, and it stands as a true reflection of the content we generate and the satisfaction of our audience. It is a measure that cannot be bought or concealed, automatically shaped by the value we bring and the joy we elicit from our readers. The Steemit platform, recognizing the significance of this criterion, wisely employs it to identify and reward users who exhibit loyalty and align with the platform's vision.

In my case, I take pride in my current reputation score of 79.590, a testament to the consistent delivery of high-quality content that resonates with both curators and subscribers. This reputation serves as concrete evidence of the positive reception my contributions have received within the community, resulting in significant votes and support.

To further substantiate this, I present a screenshot from SteemWorld, affirming the credibility of my reputation score. These numbers are not merely digits; they signify a commitment to excellence and a dedication to providing content that not only meets but exceeds the expectations of the Steemit community. I am grateful for the recognition and support received thus far, and I am committed to maintaining and elevating the standard of my contributions for the benefit of the entire community.

Moving away from geographical affiliations and other external considerations in our voting choices demonstrates a commitment to fairness and objectivity. This approach aligns with the platform's ethos of rewarding merit and fostering a diverse and inclusive community. As we navigate our roles with an advanced level of influence, it becomes paramount to uphold these principles, thereby contributing to the sustained growth and vibrancy of the Steemit platform.
