I wrote an article about this called [What Kubernetes means to me](http://bit.ly/k8s2me) that will shed some light on my journey to this point. My contributions to the community currently include leading the 1.8 release team, co-leading SIG Azure, SIG Architecture, and SIG Cluster Ops (although Rob Hirschfeld has been covering for me while I work on the release). I have facilitated every release retrospective since 1.3, and have improved my typing skills by note taking at countless SIG meetings. I also work behind the scenes on Community things with Sarah and Jorge. + +## Career + +I've been in love with systems, networks, and the human elements of interconnectivity since I was a SysOp on a BBS as a teenager. My first hack was in grade school, making the Oregon Trail game say naughty things. In the time since, I have been a systems and network engineer, and held several engineering management directorships at companies large and small. At Microsoft, all I do is Kubernetes, so I definitely have the organizational support to carry out my duties on the committee. I write and speak about organizational agility, DevOps, and yep, Kubernetes! On the side, I live/work on an organic farm, play jazz saxophone, and hand engrave brass musical instruments. + +In closing, I'd like to say there is no losing in this election.
