As explained in the [comment in #994](https://polkadot.polkassembly.io/referenda/994#RZBo0wGy9sYccnh0kRq7), I would like to remove myself from the Fellowship collective.

Note that a referendum in Fellowship Admin track is necessary for this, as fellowship collective itself is [limited](https://github.com/polkadot-fellows/runtimes/blob/main/system-parachains/collectives/collectives-polkadot/src/fellowship/mod.rs#L128) in its power of demotion and removal.

I have explained my reasons a bit in the comments in #994. In short, I think this is the best option for me and for the community. For my Polkadot community engagement, I do value greatly on my freedom in choosing what I would prefer to work on and during which time. As someone who occasionally suffers from burn-outs, this is especially important for me in maintaining my productivity and creativity. The plain-old treasury proposal process will be a lot more suitable for me, as I can set my own timelines (rather than Fellowship fixed 6 months). I think this will also be better for the community, as you will have more direct chances to review and audit my work.

I therefore hope that the community can respect my request and vote Aye to remove myself from the Fellowship collective.

I'll of course continue to engage in the Polkadot community and I look forward to you, all community members, reviewing my treasury proposals in the future.

- **Problem Statement:** Requesting to be removed from the Fellowship collective due to the need for more flexibility in work timelines and avoiding burnout.
- **Significance:** Limited power within the Fellowship collective for demotion and removal necessitates a referendum for this request.
- **Proposed Solution:** Seeking community support through a referendum in the Fellowship Admin track to exit the collective and transition to the treasury proposal process for more flexibility.
- **Expected Outcomes:** Increased productivity and creativity, enhanced community review opportunities for work, and continued engagement in the Polkadot community.
