+- Rolled out [improved triage automation & workflow] practices across the org.
+- I have helped run every Contributor Summit since 2018, and have served as lead
+  for [NA 2021], [NA 2022] along with leading both virtual Celebrations
+  ([1][c1], [2][c2]) during the Pandemic.

+  shaping the Kubernetes Community Culture.
+- Dogfooding leadership succession mentoring by co-leading in the 
+  [SIG ContribEx lead shadow program], bringing on 6 potential future chairs
+  and TLs.

+Outside of Kubernetes, I have also been involved heavily with the CNCF as an

+My efforts both for Kubernetes and the broader community were recognized in
+2019 when I received the [CNCF Chop Wood Carry Water Award].

+
+## What I'll do
+
+I appreciate your consideration for what would be my final term on steering :)
+
+In my time in the project, I've been an end-user consumer, part-time hobby
+contributor, owner, elected leader, and most recently, a contributor working
+for one of the big cloud providers. I've worn many different hats and
+understand the frustrations and boons that have come with each role.
+
+These experiences come heavily into play as we look toward developing
+strategies for the project's long-term success. Steering has recognized that the
+time of the [9 to 5 contributor] has past, and we need to develop policies and
+processes to ensure we can continue to grow new contributors, reviewers,
+approvers, and our future SIG/WG/Committee leaders.
+
+This means engaging with the CNCF, its members, and the end-user community.
+It means looking into improving leadership continuity through things like terms,
+the creation of more roles, and a further investment in mentorship. It means
+continuing to do outreach and create a diverse and welcoming place for all
+contributors. I wish to drive focus in or community toward these key areas,
+and encourage action through policy. I want to build sustainable models for
+ourselves and continue to be a role-model project for the broader Cloud Native
+community.
+
+I'll stop my own ranting there, but hopefully it gives you an idea of what's
+important to me and what I'd like to focus on if elected.
