Here my Delegate Statement 
Hi! 
First let me introduce myself. My name is Alex Soto, and I’m Mexican and a stubborn optimist.
I am an independent facilitator and consultant on organizational development topics with a focus on self-management (Teal, Sociocracy, NVC, etc.)
I am co-founder of Matriz, a community of freelancers, entrepreneurs, and early-stage collectives that seek to increase the impact of our work through collaboration and mutualization of resources.
I have been participating in the Optimism collective since 2023 and have been an active contributor since season 6 (where I was a member of the Code of Conduct Council and went through the govNERDs contribution path training).
My decision to become a delegate came from having taken the Super Contributor Cohort 0 and recognizing that I had gained enough context to feel comfortable voting on topics.
Although it is clear to me that I am still on a learning path, I consider that I have both the criteria and the experience to take a more active role.
To this day, only I have self-delegated the tokens that I hold. I will be honored when that changes, and others begin to consider me as an option to delegate their duties to. I am committed to maintaining transparency and communication to ensure that this is a fruitful relationship.
