Hi,

I'd like to run for the Technical Committee in the up and coming elections.

I am a Principle Software Engineer at Red Hat. I have been actively 
developing OpenStack since the Essex release. I am currently a Quantum 
core developer. In addition to this I am also core on the Stable 
Maintenance team. I also have contribute to Nova, OSLO, documentation 
and devstack. In Nova the work was mainly focused on the Quantum 
integrations. My latest contribution was the "VM ensembles", part of 
which was added in Grizzly release and hopefully will be completed in 
the up and coming Havana release. I spend most of my days reviewing, 
testing, debugging, documenting and developing with the goal of making 
OpenStack better. I am thankful to my employer Red Hat to have the 
opportunity and time to work on such and amazing project.

I have close to 18 years of experience in the industry. Over that course 
of time I have strived to produce quality, usable, robust and optimal 
solutions. I would like to bring all that experience to the table to 
ensure that we have a better product. We are working in a very healthy, 
dynamic and vibrant community. A few things that I would like to improve 
are the following:
    - cross project interaction
    - growth of the community
    - sharing of ideas and information

In my spare time I run.

Thanks
Gary
