Council Lead
Does this nomination represent an individual or organization:
Individual
Candidate country of residence (or, if an entity, incorporation and principle place of business):
United Arab Emirates
Have you previously served on Optimism’s Security Council:
Yes, I was initially appointed as a Security Council Member, which was ratified in this vote (November 2023 ). Prior to kickoff, I took on the role of Security Council Lead, and have been in that role since.
Have you previously served on any other Council or Board in the Collective:
No
Are you a representative of OP Labs:
No
Are you a representative of another OP Chain:
No
If you are a delegate, please provide the link to your delegate profile:
NA
If you are a member of the Citizens’ House, please link to your most recent attestation here:
Badgeholder Attestation
Please outline your contributions, and their impact, to the Optimism ecosystem to date:
As Security Council Lead, I have coordinated the Security Council since December 2023 . I am a badgeholder in the Citizen’s House and have voted on retro-funding rounds 2 , 3 and 4 .
Please demonstrate any non-Optimism experience you believe is relevant to this role:
I am an experienced governance and ecosystem coordinator and a qualified lawyer. Previously, I lead governance at ENS. I am working on an open source hardware wallet (Firefly) with a quest to eliminate blind signing and as such I am especially conscious of wallet security and the approval process for signing Security Council transactions.
Please elaborate on your technical background, including your github handle (this will be used to calculate your github expertise score and will be added to your nomination before it goes to a vote by the Foundation):
I am not a developer, but incase it is useful, my github handle is futurealisha.
Please elaborate on your experience with relevant member (or Lead) requirements:
Since December 2023 , I have coordinated all Security Council rehearsals, along with all signing ceremonies that have been executed by the Security Council. I pride myself on being alarmingly responsive with internal Security Council communications. I have built and maintained opsc.vercel.app which is a site that shares information on the Optimism Security Council, including status updates on signing ceremonies, and recordings of monthly calls, which I host.
Please describe your philosophy on what makes a good Security Council member:
A good Security Council member is an independent thinker who pays attention to details and doesn’t operate on assumptions. For the operational success of the Security Council, an good Security Council member is also responsive and a clear communicator who isn’t afraid to speak up. A less technical qualification is an acute awareness of the position of responsibility and trust that a SC member operates with, and acting with integrity in all situations.
Please disclose any anticipated conflicts of interest:
I contract with an entity that provides services to various foundation companies and DAOs in the Ethereum ecosystem. In matters related to Optimism, I am confident in my ability to always act in the best interests of Optimism governance.
Please verify that you understand you may be removed from this role via the Representative Removal proposal type in the Operating Manual:
Yes
Please verify that you understand that election is subject to successful completion of a Foundation screen which may include KYC/AML, sanctions screening, and a requirement to sign a standard contract:
Yes
Please verify that you are able to commit ~ 5 active hours / month to fulfill the Member Responsibilities. Please note that there is an “on-call” aspect to this role that is not fully encompassed in the active hours estimate:
Yes

Upgrade Proposal: Guardian, Security Council Threshold and L2 ProxyAdmin Ownership changes for Stage 1 Decentralization
by alisha.eth - No Role
Posted on: May 16, 2024, 6:32 p.m.
Content: As Security Council Lead, I am excited and proud to see this proposal to progress the Security Council from Phase 0 to Phase 1 . This is a huge step in further decentralizing the Superchain :clap: . maurelian: Increasing the Security Council Safe’s signing threshold, from 4 to 10 , out of 13 owners. This is a significant change from the current signing threshold, which is 4 / 13 . Signing data from the last two proposal upgrades signed by the Security Council is as follows: 13 / 13 SC members submitted signatures for Proposal Upgrade 4 ; and 12 / 13 SC members submitted signatures for Proposal Upgrade 6 . Based on these numbers, I do not anticipate any issues with the Security Council meeting the increased signing threshold ( 75 %). During Phase 0 , the Security Council was operating on the basis that it should be meeting a 75 % signing threshold, in anticipation of moving to Phase 1 . I am confident in the ability of the individuals and entities who make up the OP Security Council to meet the new requirements and additional scope set out in this proposal. If anyone is interested in keeping up to date on the Security Council, monthly updates are posted on opsc.vercel.app 2 .
