+
+## What I have done
+
+My technical experience spans orchestration, distributed systems,
+linux distribution build/release/test/update, linux kernel and drivers,
+embedded systems and hardware bringup. Across almost 30 years, I
+am a full stack engineer. In and outside of tech, servant leadership
+is who I am. I've served on multiple advisory boards for non-profit
+organizations. I am a proud parent of two amazing young adults.
+
+My four years in Kubernetes include, eg:
+- Release Team member (1.10-1.12, 1.15, 1.19)
+- Patch Release Team / Release Managers member (1.13.1 - 1.19)
+- SIG Release co-chair (Oct. 2018 - Nov. 2020)
+- WG LTS co-chair (Feb. 2019 - Oct. 2020)
+- SIG Contributor Experience: developer documentation improvements and helping
+ with new contributor activities at KubeCons from (virtual) Amsterdam and
+ Copenhagen to Shanghai and Seattle
+- Steering elected member of Code of Conduct Committee
+
+## What I'll do
+
+Through my diverse background, I bring the experience of a specializing
+generalist which I apply to see, foresee, and mitigate current and
+future issues. I bias toward action and decision. But decisions
+alone are often not sufficient, especially in open source. I
+facilitate thoughtful communication and consensus across project
+developers, operators, users, and also vendor stakeholders.
