+- Participate: api-machinery, autoscaling, federation, scheduling,

+
+## About me
+
+I joined in 2014 as an early external contributor.  After the first developer
+summit, I realized I had a lot to learn from the experience of others.  My first
+PR enabled people to contribute to the project by running Kubernetes in a VM.
+Mentors in the community helped multiply the quality of my contributions.  With
+their help, I designed and implemented namespaces, quota, limits, and much of
+the supporting internal machinery like admission control, indexers, and clients
+prior to the 1.0 release.
+
+As the project grew, SIGs developed to support specialized collaboration.  I
+co-lead SIG node and advocate for expanded workload support and improvements to
+node reliability.  To improve cross-SIG collaboration, I co-founded the Resource
+Management Working Group to define a multi-release roadmap across SIGs (node,
+scheduling, storage, etc).  The cross-SIG working group concept has been adopted
+across the community.  I participate in multiple incubator projects with code
+and coaching on technology and process.  As every maintainer acknowledges, it is
+impossible to know everything about Kubernetes. I prioritize mentoring others to
+help them grow their scope and sustain the project.
+
+My experience reflects both a breadth and depth of commitment across Kubernetes
+that would benefit the committee.  I have a pragmatic approach to problem
+solving that builds from the expertise of others and adopts minimal solutions
+that have the best potential outcome.  I iterate and improve.  As a member of
+the community, I hope the steering committee adheres to the same general
+approach.
+
+## Where I see myself contributing
+
+- Responsibly grow contributor pool across all disciplines
+- Clarify scope, structure, and responsibilities of SIGs and roles within
+- Enhance Code of Conduct to nurture an inclusive, diverse, and open community
