I then joined SIG Release, working on a number of Release Teams, eventually becoming Release Lead for 1.20 and now a tech lead. + +As release lead, I focused on improving processes and facilitating a more inclusive culture by [requiring unconscious bias training for release leads](https://github.com/kubernetes/sig-release/issues/1251), implementing more asynchronous communication, and driving the creation of meetings in APAC/EMEA friendly times. Since then, I continue to focus on release team improvements and have worked across SIGs to build consensus and drive the adoption of [a release cadence change](https://github.com/kubernetes/enhancements/pull/2567). + + +## What I'll do + +I have seen first hand the impact burnout can have on projects, especially after almost two years of global pandemic. I believe it is important to address contributor burnout and to support SIG leadership as they identify future leads, in order to support sustained health of the project and community. As a member of the Steering Committee, I will actively work to promote inclusion, support contributors and focus on sustainability of the project. As a Steering Committee member, I will also model transparency, and ensure that open communication happens within the project. + + +## Resources About Me + +* KubeCon Talks and other things: +https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cuaWIpUNvNo +https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SuicCBXJRPg +https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zVuM7F_BTyc +https://www.cncf.io/online-programs/cncf-live-webinar-kubernetes-1-20/ +https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T6WRsQGP8Rc + +- Links to social media +* https://twitter.com/jrrickard + |
