+## Background
+
+I joined the Kubernetes community in 2016, and have contributed in a number of
+capacities since:
+
+- Core contributor of Helm
+- Co-leading the Kubernetes Charts project
+- Kicked off the Helm incubation process and community docs
+- Co-leading SIG Apps
+- Regularly speaking and advocating for Kubernetes
+
+Prior to my involvement in Kubernetes, I have been an active maintainer of
+Bitnami's open source container images. My work at Bitnami is heavily focused on
+making containers and Kubernetes both accessible and easy to use.
+
+I am honoured to be amongst the amazing group of people nominated for the
+Steering Committee. If elected, my goal will be to help Kubernetes grow into a
+rich and diverse community.
+
+## Where I see myself contributing
+
+As someone who isn't completely focused on Kubernetes core, I think an important
+part of the project is the ecosystem around it. I am deeply interested in being
+part of discussions, as part of the Steering Committee, to define the vision of
+the project, and to decide what relevant sub-projects should be part of
+Kubernetes to continue building a strong ecosystem and brand. This also means
+making sure sub-projects have the resources they need (i.e. CI, documentation
+websites) to succeed and promote their roles in the overall project.
+
+The diversity and inclusivity is one of the things that I value the most about
+the Kubernetes community. I think it's important that we uphold these values
+when defining and practicing a Code of Coduct and refining the contributor
+experience.
+
+Another area of the Steering Commitee I'm interested in is furthering the
+transparency and accountability for SIGs. I believe improving the communication
+and enabling more knowledge sharing will empower both community and consumers.
