Hi Community,

I'd like to provide an addendum to my nomination to further elaborate on the relevance of GitOps specifically in terms of my reach and career:

- I've lead the implementation of Kubernetes Native GitOps Solution for 5G Telco Operators, as presented to the ArgoCD Community (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ixZfewgPZw4)

- I'm a vocal promoter of GitOps in Latin America, extending the reach of the operating model to under-represented participants in the ecosystem (KCD El Salvador: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XQiR0n4hoy4 - CNCF Community Costa Rica: https://youtu.be/ptIrS-88c9Q)

- I actively share knowledge in social media and blog related to GitOps in practical use cases (https://www.murillodigital.com/tech_talk/flux2_crossplane/)

- I continue to actively promote the GitOps capabilities in cloud native related events (https://www.conf42.com/Cloud_Native_2021_Leonardo_Murillo_gitops_multicloud_crossplane_flux2)

GitOps represents the evolution of continuous delivery and will become a natural next step in the operating model for cloud native organizations, and is one of the primary areas of focus of my consulting practice.

Thanks!

Leo
