+Hi friends,
+
+I'm throwing my name out there for a position on the TC, if you'll have me.
+
+I've been around OpenStack since 2014, when I began working on a bare metal
+cloud powered by Ironic. Since then, I've been a core reviewer for Ironic and
+spent three cycles as PTL. I've also spent this time developing and operating
+OpenStack at large scale at Rackspace and Yahoo^WOath^WVerizon Media.
+
+I've never been a member of the TC, but have spent a lot of time in meetings,
+office hours, IRC channels, and face to face meetings with the TC, over
+various iterations of its members. I care deeply about OpenStack, and believe
+that I can help shape the future.
+
+I'll be honest, I don't have specific objectives I want to accomplish as a
+TC member, that I can platform on. Things I do care about doing are:
+
+Make/keep the OpenStack community a happy place to be (as happy as people
+can be while working, anyway). I believe that this community is somewhat
+family-like, and we all have each other's best interests in mind. We
+seem to be collaborating better than we have in a long time, and I'd like
+to keep improving on that. I'd love to continue the work that folks have
+started to encourage more cross-project feature collaboration.
+
+Encourage more part-time contributors. People like someone scratching an
+itch in their lab at home, a user getting curious about a bug, or an operator
+that finds an edge case. I think it's easier for these types of people to
+contribute today than it has been in the past, but I believe we can keep
+improving on this. Our onboarding process can continue to improve. We should
+have more people willing to walk a new contributor through their first patch
+(kudos to the people doing this already!). And folks shouldn't have to spend
+thousands of dollars attending a summit to gain influence in the community. On
+that note, I should be clear that I won't be at the Denver summit, and probably
+not Shanghai. Purely personal reasons, my employer still has my back with
+upstream contributions.
+
+I believe my experience as a downstream dev, upstream dev, operator, IRC
+addict, and wanna-be thought leaderer makes me a decent fit to help drive
+the community forward.
+
+Thanks for reading, and thanks in advance for voting, even if it's not for me.
