Personal Statement [Explain in 150 words or less the kind of work you'd like to do and why you think it could advance the ecosystem.] I think the unique aspects of the Stacks chain lend itself well to creating impactful behavior loops in the fields of fitness, mindfulness, habit formation, and mental health. With an eye on the coming metaverse, these types of mechanisms will be key pillars of our overall health going forward. Stacks ecosystem uniquely benefits the possibilities here and these are areas I'd like to see Stacks pave the way on. Everything I learn can be leveraged for future builders and creators in this space.

End Product [Describe in 150 words or less the what you plan to contribute to the community by the end of your residency, e.g. a whitepaper or a series of developer tools.] I plan to run a series of experiments to help the Stacks ecosystem understand how unique elements of the Stacks blockchain can be leveraged to connect the physical and virtual worlds, a relationship that will define the next era our overall health. I plan to proactively pursue partnerships with companies working in the fitness and mindfulness space to work with their users to isolate and determine how Stacks-based mechanisms can create the right behavior loops. One of the asks to the community is asking for help to do it in a conscious way. I'd like to be the antithesis of negative loops of the seratonin extraction based models and into a healthy one, sustainable alternative for the coming metaverse.

Roadmap [Break your project down into a simple list of milestones and include the approximate dates by when you plan to complete them.]

Appendix [Attach any supplemental materials such as previous work/accolades, notes, diagrams, preliminary research, or community interactions that could support your application.]
