[PROJECT NAME]

After participating in the Arbitrum hackathon in 2023, I was excited about the whole idea of sharing demographically relevant solutions on a platform that was willing to listen. It was a space where I could step out of my thoughts to share my ideas and refine my perspectives. I joined the DREAM project to challenge myself to understand the process of changemaking and gain practice for future presentations. One is always curious about how these things begin. When I was disqualified after the first round, and later learned why, my entire perspective on healthcare and the health system shifted. I learned that money is the impetus for sustainability. "Money answers everything," the Scripture says, and now I understand the need for the health system to shift toward affordability as a core principle. It was wonderful learning that my colleagues and I have aspirations and visions far beyond simply averaging a 50%. You never truly understand the greatness around you until you enter such a community or project. I have been inspired to seek that spark in the people I meet. The atmosphere of the project was calming, something not normally expected in a money-winning competition. Everyone was open to sharing tips and hacks to help each other improve. The judges were constructive in their feedback and offered guidance on how to own one's project. The entire process gave me a start toward my personal vision. We all hope to tread the road not taken, and until one learns to find that path, they often walk the road most trodden. I have found my path toward understanding health sustainability, and the DREAM project has done a great deal steering me toward it.
