+Hi all,
+
+Please consider my candidacy for a seat on the OpenStack Technical Committee.
+
+I'm a software engineer at the Mass Open Cloud[0], a collaboration between
+the five major universities of the Boston area to create and operate a public
+cloud that can be replicated and federated. I've been involved with OpenStack
+for the past 5 years as a user, operator, and developer. I'm a core reviewer
+for the keystone project, and I'm also running for its PTL for the Victoria
+cycle[1]. I have a previous unsuccessful run for the TC[2]. Lately, I've
+also been involved with OpenInfra Labs[3], a new project of the OSF.
+
+I do not have a platform per se, and honestly I wasn't planning on running at
+all. I have a lot to learn, and if I were to be elected, pretty big shoes to
+fill. If you are looking for someone that already has all the answers, look
+elsewhere.
+
+On the other hand, if you're looking for someone who is eager to grow, learn,
+and give back to the community in any way he can, I hope you will consider my
+candidacy.
+
+I'm deeply grateful to the OpenStack community and all the people I've had
+the pleasure of working with, being mentored by, and doing karaoke during the
+PTGs. You are like family.
+
+Thank you,
+Kristi Nikolla
+Pronouns: he, him, his
