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 + + +[0]. https://massopen.cloud +[1]. https://opendev.org/openstack/election/raw/branch/master/candidates/victoria/Keystone/knikolla%40bu.edu +[2]. https://opendev.org/openstack/election/raw/branch/master/candidates/stein/TC/knikolla@bu.edu +[3]. https://openinfralabs.org \ No newline at end of file
