+__Personal Statement:__
+
+Having had a fondness for open-source and Linux for more than 15 years I jumped at the chance to help bring AMD's display driver into the DRM community. Since doing this my appreciation for X.Org's mission to create and maintain a free and open accelerated graphics stack has grown. I've noticed how even companies that would like to participate in open source are often unsure how to go about it and align such participation with business goals. As member of the board, in addition to supporting existing board initiatives, I will focus on increasing new user participation and finding ways (e.g. documentation, process) to help lower the barrier of entry to participation.
