Dear ONAP Community,

I would like to nominate myself as a TSC member of the ONAP community representing AT&T.

I have been heavily involved in and responsible for the software delivery and scaling of several ECOMP Components within AT&T, which have been deployed in production for the last 4.5 years.

I co-led the open sourcing activities of the ECOMP Platform prior the ONAP Launch (initially OpenECOMP).

I have contributed to the ONAP releases since day 1, and continue providing support to several project teams including the Integration team, subcommittees.

I have worked collaboratively with the ONAP Release Managers to help drive the releases, including, but not limited to:

• Preparation/review of all milestones,
• Removal of roll block(s) raised by several PTLs,
• Reviewing of security/license issues,
• Assisting with identification and management of risks,
• JIRA management,
• Driving Lesson learned discussions, and
• Identification of process improvements

I participated in several international road shows/events since 2017 to evangelize ONAP and to share the AT&T SDN Journey.

 I have also served as a member of Open Networking Summit Program Committees (North America and Europe) since 2018.

As your current ONAP TSC Chair and as one of the leaders of ONAP from AT&T , I believe I have a lot of experience with the ONAP code in actual production deployments, as well as broad knowledge of the ONAP solution that positions me well for the role of TSC member and helping to drive the ONAP success story.

Dear ONAP community,

I would like to nominate myself as a TSC member of the ONAP project representing Orange.

I have been involved in SDN/NFV activities for more than 5 years, leading a team focusing in open source communities (ONAP, OPNFV, Acumos).
I jumped into ONAP from day1 and always promoted ONAP in various events (SDN World Congress 2017, OSN Days Paris 2018, ONS 2018&2019, ONS Europe 2018&2019) and interviews (Telecoms TV).

Currently TSC member representing Orange, I am also the Orange coordinator for all ONAP activities (cf Orange stats on bitergia: https://onap.biterg.io/goto/2154018f4e022a09c433a6a04ca8b27d).
Orange had PTL responsibility on External API and is now leading Integration project, security sub-committee and the CNCF coordination. Orange is also very active to promote ONAP by offering an OpenLab Platform for the community and resources to perform daily tests.
I contributed to various ONAP projects (documentation, integration, externalAPI…) and I am strongly involved to improve documentation, end to end automation, platform footprint and also CI/CD. I also conducted many PoC with many vendors and service providers establishing strong relationship with the eco-system.

I am convinced that collaboration within open source project is the best approach to drive the industry to deliver de facto standard solutions.
ONAP has established an amazing community and I very proud to be part of it.

ONAP is a major project for service providers in their network automation journey and I will focus my energy to make ONAP a success.

Acting as a TSC member, I would focus on key topics (usability, CI/CD, security) to ease ONAP usage in production.
