I like that The Alliance refers to themselves as one big happy family.
I spend every day on Steemit so a close-knit community of friends is important to me.
I also appreciate that The Alliance is quite specific about accepting those who create quality content, and they care enough to help Steemians create higher quality posts if they are not immediately accepted.

What qualities do I have that would make me a valued member of the family?

I've been a teacher for a looooooooong time and I like to help people.
For the last 4 months, I've been writing Steemit Help posts for Minnows and new users.
I made a compilation of all my Help posts thus far Here.

One of my goals on Steemit is to do what I can to help promote and curate musicians and artists.
I started the @msp-music account to help musicians and other creative artists.
I manually curate with that account every day, run a weekly curation contest, and also do my weekly music curation as part of the Minnow Support Project Community Curation initiative.
I also host 2 radio shows where I promote creative Steemians:
The Steemit Creative Curation Show
and Steemit Musicians.

I do what I can to help others by supporting as many minnows as possible and by donating monthly to @youarehope and @tarc.

I may be a bit socially awkward at times, but I hope you will allow me to join your community!
