Hi Everyone,
I would like propose my candidacy for the OpenStack Technical Committee.
A bit about me
============
I have been an Active Technical Contributor to Keystone and DevStack
since the Grizzly release. I have also co-authored articles on
OpenStack [1] and more information about me can be found in a recent
OpenStack Open Mic article [2]. In addition, I lead and give
direction to a large team of OpenStack developers at my company that
contribute to a variety of OpenStack projects including Keystone,
Heat, Ceilometer, Swift, Cinder, and Internationalization (i18n). This
role gives me an opportunity to obtain a broad view of what is
happening in the OpenStack projects as opposed to being focused on a
specific core project. I also spend a tremendous amount of time
traveling to customers and business partners to evangelize OpenStack,
listening to their OpenStack requirements and adoption impediments,
and assisting their development teams to become contributors to
OpenStack. I am incredibly passionate about making sure OpenStack is
highly consumable for our users and that the OpenStack ecosystem
grows and thrives.

=======
As a technical team lead, developer, and evangelist for OpenStack, I
am deeply committed to OpenStack being incredibly valuable and
consumable for all our users and also to making sure the OpenStack
ecosystem grows and thrives. I hear from customers all the time on
how OpenStack can be improved such that it becomes easier to install,
more consumable and serviceable, more easily integrated into
enterprise customer environments, and the need for being able to
certify interoperability and scalability of OpenStack environments. I
would be honored to have an opportunity to serve as a member of the TC
and to help drive the the technical direction of the OpenStack project
based on all the outstanding feedback I receive from customers,
business partners, analysts, and also from all the knowledge I have
gained by both being a personal contributor to OpenStack as well as
leading a large development team of strong and core contributors that
work across several of OpenStack's core projects.
