+Hello, my name is Jan-Erik Mangs. I’ve worked with IT infrastructure
+since the early days of the Internet. I have a background in computer
+science and a solid base in networking. I’ve been with Ericsson now
+for many years, both in research and development and I’ve worked with
+cloud technologies from the start. I’ve always kept one leg in the
+lab, combining theory with practice and I've worked with operations
+for many years. So, I’ve learned the value of automation the hard
+way. For that reason, I really see the value in Airship.
+
+As an end user of Airship since its inclusion in the OpenStack
+Foundation (2018) I have spent a lot of time learning the benefits and
+complications of working with Airship for both new and intermediate
+users. I've also participated in the Airship community since the start
+and I'm currently on the Airship Technical Committee.
+
+I believe in the mission of Airship, and it’s growing community, and I
+feel that in order for it to be successful simplification and
+usability needs to be focus items. With the Airship 2 release we have
+a unique opportunity to improve the end user experience. We also have
+an excellent opportunity to attract end users from the Kubernetes
+community and grow the Airship community and use cases. If elected to
+the TC I will focus on precisely these things.
+
+I intend to work across the Open Infrastructure and Kubernetes
+communities to facilitate best approaches and industry standards in
+the platform, both to increase ease of use and establish future
+looking models for usability and operations. I'll also be an
+evangelist for Airship in particular in northern Europe.
+
+Thank you for your consideration.
+
+Jan-Erik Mangs
