Hi All- Thank you for the introduction Leo. I wanted to take this opportunity to introduce myself and provide some information about my background. I have spent my entire professional career helping the Internet grow and expand, with over 30 years of technical, operations, and leadership experience in the industry. For most of those years, I have worked within the IP address and Domain Name Registry systems (both RIR and pre-RIR) and have been actively involved in the global coordination of Internet addressing policy. (https://www.linkedin.com/in/leslie-nobile-6aa0b52/) I served as the Co-Chair of the Messaging, Malware, and Mobile Anti-Abuse Working Group (M3AAWG) Names and Numbers Committee (IP addresses and Domain Names) for several years and was a Chair of both the Number Resource Organization (NRO) Registration Services Coordination Group (RSCG) and the Public Safety Coordination Group (PSCG), two joint RIR coordination groups that I helped to establish. I have been attending RIPE meetings for the past 25 years and have met many of you, but it is hard to meet everyone given the large number of attendees. During those years, I have worked very closely with both RIPE NCC staff members and RIPE community members. I now have the time to devote my energy and focus to giving back to the community, and continuing my passion of helping the Internet grow and thrive. I feel like this opportunity with the RIPE community is the perfect fit. I look forward to working with all of you.
