As per the nomination for Secretariat I like to respond to this call with a short notice of my intention to run and some relevant background information 

The past two years I have been focused on the  ICANN NOMCOM,  which has included committee work on NOMCOM Engagement and the Communication working groups in addition to the review and assessment of all the applications. We are into the next phase of the NOMCOM process that means Deep Dives into the background and interviews with assigned candidates.   
Since 2012, I have been active in leadership roles at ICANN and a member of NARALO since 2009.  In the past I have served as the Secretariat and Its important to note that this has included ATLARGE work in the Outreach and Engagement Committee, Finance Committee and other activities.  A big achievement was our work on our  successful  NARALO GA in New Orleans together with our active involvement with ARIN.  
I'm prepared and willing to serve in the capacity of Secretariat and will work towards building our capacity in the North American region 

Thanks
