2023 NANOG Committee Appointments
by Valerie Wittkop 01 Mar '23

01 Mar '23

NANOG Community, I am excited to announce that 33 NANOG members accepted appointments to a committee. So many highly-qualified volunteers from the NANOG membership were nominated for this year’s committee selection, and we personally thank each NANOG member who offered their time. As an organization, NANOG was founded by volunteers who developed a quality forum for North America’s operator community. Despite the growth in NANOG’s programs, volunteers greatly outnumber professional staff. The volunteer-only committees drive many of the ideas for growth and development in the organization and community as a whole. Please join me in congratulating the appointed committee members: Diversity Equity and Inclusion Committee Evan Breznyik, Kate Gerry, Stephen Hartman, Marcus Holt, T.Marc Jone, Louie Lee, Marlin Martes, Charles Rumford, Alejandro Silvestre, Anna Valsami, Clara Wade, Christoph Weisbrod, + Les Williams Education Committee Jeff Bartig, Dr. Sanjay Basu, Alex Bortok, Alex Latzko, Saju Abdul Razak Salahudeen, + Alejandro Silvestre Elections Committee Leif Sawyer + Tony Tauber Mentorship Committee Mahish Krishnan, Alex Latzko, + Kendra Pignotti Program Committee Kam Agahian, Phil Bedard, Daniel Chioreanu, Kate Gerry, Mikael Holmberg, Marcus Holt, Manish Krishnan, Nimrod Levy, Marlin Martes, Sergey Myasoedov, Stevan E Plote, Charles Rumford, Adair Thaxton, Michael T. Voity, + Les Williams Scholarship Committee Jeff Budney + Tony Tauber We are truly excited to see what develops for NANOG over the next year working with these volunteers. Please also join me in thanking and recognizing the many contributions of committee alumni who have termed out: Education Committee Reddy Urmindi Elections Committee Dan Chioreanu, Mike Starr, + Steve Ulrich Mentorship Committee Reddy Urmindi Program Committee Jeff Bartig, Tom Beecher, Bryan Jong, Alex Latzko, Steve Meuse, Alankar Sharma, Yordan Sutanto, + Anna Valsami Scholarship Committee Bryan Brooks, Tom Daly, Craig MacKinder, + Alankar Sharma Volunteer participation from these members on NANOG committees developed new programs, brought new ideas and new methods into practice, and helped to evolve the NANOG organization. We would not be where we are without their time and contributions. We look forward to continuing working together to build the Internet of tomorrow, and hope to see you at a NANOG conference soon! Sincerely, Valerie Wittkop (On behalf of the NANOG Board of Directors) -- *Valerie Wittkop* Program Directorvwittkop(a)nanog.org | +1 734-730-0225 <+15038199432> (mobile) | www.nanog.org NANOG | 305 E.

He describes himself as a theatre geek in high school. However, it was not the stage that caught his eye, but what went on behind it. *READ NOW* <https://www.nanog.org/stories/road-less-traveled-alex-latzko/> *NANOG Board Leadership Changes and Elects New Official * *Check Out New Board Leadership Team* We are pleased to announce NANOG's new board leadership team.
