I accept it with honor. I have updated my SOI<https://community.icann.org/display/atlarge/Lianna+Galstyan+SOI> and if elected, I would like to continue my engagement with various aspects of work within our RALO and At-Large. As you know, we are launching the APRALO Mentoring Program, which is an excellent opportunity for many to develop the leadership potential. To me personally, this is a significant opportunity as I was a participant of the previous version of it and I'd like to see the valuable results for our RALO coming out of this planned program. Starting this year, we work on bringing new elements to our monthly meetings and this is a continuous effort by APRALO leadership, which I'm happy to be a part of. Rather a challenge, mostly, due to a pandemic, but I would do my best towards improving our members' engagement to APRALO activities. I would highly appreciate APRALO members support of my candidacy in the Vice Chair position.
