** Workstation WG member, have been dealing with a lot of Workstation-related package builds over past 2 years.
** Upstream GNOME contributor, mostly working on GNOME Software these days.


* '''Mission Statement:''' Ensure Fedora is sanely deliverable, and continues to be leading edge
* '''Future plans:'''
* '''Past work summary:''' Former FESCo member, Former Fedora Board Member, Lead for Secondary Arches in Fedora, Fedora Release Engineer lead, Involved in Fedora since its inception. Currently serving on the Base Working Group. Member of Fedora Infrastructure. Red Hat Employee since 2008.

* '''Mission Statement:''' Ensure Fedora products form a coordinated and well-integrated universe.
* '''Past work summary:''' Currently FESCo and Server WG member, security architect at Red Hat.  Contributor since RHL times, worked on all parts of the technology stack (from kernel through basic infrastructure to desktop and web applications).  Author of the Fedora signing server.
* '''Future plans:'''
** With the introduction of Fedora products, make sure that they make consistent technology choices to avoid splintering the Fedora universe into incompatible subgroups and wasting effort on reimplementations.
** More QA automation - supporting the current tool work, make it more integrated into the packaging process and increasing testing coverage.
** Fedora is often the place where packages affected by changes other packages first interact, and handling this well is critical for achieving good user experience. To that end, I want to improve the handling of changes that affect other packages and ensuring distribution-wide consistency - while making it possible to make successful transitions faster, not slowing change down in bureaucracy.
** I also generally favor policies that allow quick bug->fix turnaround time and allow more enhancements into released versions of Fedora.
** Outside of FESCo my interest is in improving security of Fedora.
