Hi @geekgirl, mainly there is one reason to apply for becoming a curator and that is to strengthen the base that this whole building is constructed upon. Talented people writing(singing,painting etc) good and original content.

So this is what i would want to do, go out and find these underrated people with their brilliant posts and get them the spotlight that they deserve.

As an example i have found this post here (science ! yay!):
https://steemit.com/suesascience/@laylahsophia/misconceptions-in-egyptology

Since i have as well been hit once by curie and know how motivating this can be i want to help spread the word and give others this chance as well.
Thanks alot!
yours
Jan
