Hi,
I just wanted to take this opportunity to let the NCSG membership know that I decided a while back that I would only serve one term in the
Council on my second time around. I have already told many this
personally, but wanted to let everyone know that while eligible for another term I will not be a candidate.
I have appreciated the honor of having been selected to represent the NCSG, and give my best wishes to all the candidates in the upcoming election. Serving in the council is a heavy lift and my utmost respect goes to anyone who is willing to serve and is willing to do the constant work that it requires.
Thanks for the opportunity to have served this SG in the GNSO council.
