Thanks everyone for the warm welcome. It is an honor to be invited as a Lucene committer, and I look forward to contributing more to the community.
A little bit about me - I currently work for the Product Search team at Amazon, and am based out of the San Francisco Bay Area in California, US. I am interested in a wide variety of computer science areas, and, in the last few years, have focused more on distributed systems, concurrency, system software and performance. Outside of tech., I like spending my time outdoors - running, skiing, and long road trips. I completed my first marathon (the SFMarathon) last week, and now, getting this invitation has made this month a highlight of the year. I had known that Lucene powers some of the most popular search and analytics use cases across the globe, but as I've gotten more involved, the depth and breadth of this software has blown my mind. I am deeply impressed by what this community has built, and how it continues to work together and grow. It is a great honor to be trusted with committer privileges, and I look forward to learning and contributing to multiple different parts of the library.
