SSAD Supplemental Recommendations Team Members, Per the email below, I am volunteering to serve as lead for the SSAD supplemental recommendations team. I have been involved in the SSAD effort from the beginning, starting as a member of the PDP working group that developed the recommendations all the way through to the recent RDRS standing committee. I am deeply familiar with the policy recommendations and am motivated to see this through to a successful conclusion. I have experience chairing various groups within ICANN, most recently the Contracted Parties House’s TechOps group. I have also completed the ICANN leadership training program. I am committed to serving as a fair, neutral, and impartial lead; making sure all viewpoints are heard; and producing a final product that will serve the community well. I understand the time commitment involved and have the support of my management to dedicate the necessary time. Thank you for your consideration.

Per the Assignment Form, the role of the Lead is “to lead meetings and provide updates to the full GNSO Council. If and when the Lead is to discuss the topic outside of the Council context, the GNSO Council shall agree on talking points.” The Lead will be expected to act neutrally.
