About Me: Medical doc (MD) with 2 previous digital health start-ups (web 2) that were successfully acquired. I have been building applications for the health sector for over 10 years, which is one of the most difficult industries due to complicated regulations that are constantly in lux, entrenched incumbents, and a heavy need for marketing to drive adoption given that potential users often do not fully appreciate the complexity of the problems they face. I believe Web 3 in its current state is facing similar difficulties and I hope to contribute some experience in this regard. NFTs with the BAYC in specifically the days following the MAYC mint were my first true rabbit hole into web 3 which led me to appreciate the potential and ethos of web 3. At a personal level, I view web 3 as a potential avenue to address some of the maligned incentive mechanisms in healthcare and empower individuals/patients in optimizing their health. Even beyond healthcare there is tremendous potential for web 3 to empower individuals in an increasingly corporatized world in which systems are increasingly rigged against the individual. However, I find that the bulk of existing products are more focused on infrastructure and attempts at building applications have struggled to sustain beyond initial pilots. Scaling up beyond regulations, driving adoption among users that require heavy adoption, and identifying avenues for rapid market penetration with sustainable growth loops for sustained traction are things that I can help with. Brief headline about yourself (max 2 sentences): Professional tinkerer, hobbyist NFT trader and enjoyoor. Reasons for wanting to be a delegate: I hope to support the broader adoption of web 3 and the ethos of individual empowerment. I aim to achieve this by contributing to help navigate complicated regulations, educating prospective users to drive adoption, and developing strategies to scale-up pilots early in product/project inception. My web3 qualifications / skills: Contributor to healthcare research in $Ocean DAO and developer of various web3 applications that are currently being incubated in Singapore, such as a Metaverse-based digital health tool for scalable eye screening to prevent blindness (https://www.jmir.org/2023/1/e45044 ). What voters can expect of me: Constructive feedback with a side of trolling
