+What's I've Done
+--
+I'm comparably new to Kubernetes upstream;
+I started contributing in late 2018 after years of being a user.
+I'm currently a part time contributor, and mostly contribute independently.
+
+I primarily contribute in SIG-Network, where I focus on bugs, code cleanup, and SIG organization.
+
+I also recently co-founded SIG-Usability, as a SIG lead.
+
+Aside from those SIGs, you can find me all over the project with the odd PR, bug report,
+or community outreach.
+
+Why I'm Running, And What I'll Do
+--
+I care deeply about Kubernetes, and the people behind it.
+We are at a crucial time in the project, as we improve our maturity and start to look at what's next.
+I'm running because I believe we need all kinds of perspectives and people to make that happen successfully.
+
+There are 3 areas I want to focus on: reliability, usability, and contributor empowerment.
+
+I want to incentivize attention and work toward under-prioritized areas of the project
+(such as documentation, scalability, and usability).
+
+I want to help reduce the barriers to new contributors,
+especially to allow more part time contributors, like end-users.
+If we ensure our users' interests are well represented at the table,
+we are more likely to create a valuable and usable Kubernetes.
+
+Lastly, but most importantly, I will empower my fellow contributors in the project.
+To me, the spirit of open source is people coming together, throwing ideas at the wall,
+and making the world a better place by collaborating.
+I want to do everything I can to foster and protect that spirit in the project, so that individuals can bring their best self - ideas and work -
+without being bogged down by corporate interests.
