+## My history with Kubernetes
+I was one of the original creators of the proof of concept demo system that eventually turned
+into Kubernetes. I wrote much of the original Kubernetes codebase as well as
+the overall system design. I helped set up the initial
+trajectory and inclusive culture of the Kubernetes community. I was in the bootstrap
+committee that wrote the original governance structure for Kubernetes. More recently
+I worked to broaden the base of people who can use Kubernetes via efforts like
+usability and client libraries for different languages. I also help shape the future of technology
+on top of Kubernetes like the Service Mesh Interface (SMI) and more.
+
+## Where I see myself contributing
+I have two unique areas to contribute. The first is a sense of history and continuity having been with the
+project from it's very origin through the current day. This history helps me understand the context of the
+decisions we are making today and how we have thought about it in the past.
+
+The other is a sense for the importance of a broad, vibrant and effective community. 
+Our community is the part of the project that I'm most proud of. It's the most unique
+thing that we have built. I will work to preserve the best of what we've built and improve
+the parts that can be improved to make us even stronger, more inclusive and more capable.
