Douglas Camin

Author: alison wood

Submitted: Tuesday, September 05, 2023 22:01 EDT

Doug has brought a fresh perspective and wonderful energy to the AC. He represents the best interests of the community and is always going the extra mile for the community and the council. I encourage you to vote for Doug.

Author: Kevin Kelly

I have worked closely with Doug for many years and can attest to this professional background. As VP/CIO for Visions Federal Credit Union, I can attest to the fact that Doug is an integral part of the Supervisory Committee/Board linkage and provides technical insight that is complementary to his peers. I have worked with and have engaged Doug many times over the last 10 years as he and I worked together on many technical projects when he was in a consulting firm for my organization at the time. Doug provided high caliber expertise at every juncture. All this to say, his biography is accurate and I support him 100% - he is a skilled leader, he conducts himself professionally and is comfortable speaking to a CEO in one breath while turning to an engineer in the next and carrying on a competent conversation with both. I have rarely ever come across another quite like Doug that possesses all these skillsets and I believe he would make a great long-term fit with ARIN.

I have known and worked with Elizabeth “Liz” Goodson for only 4 short months, but she has already made a very clear impression on me. Liz is widely considered to be the go-to person to answer even the most esoteric of questions, and she has helped me on many occasions as I navigate the choppy waters of a new job. She stays abreast of current trends in technology and strives to incorporate those trends, where applicable, into useful new tools and services. Her diligence in maintaining detailed, accurate, and up-to-date documentation demonstrates her dedication to quality in her work. Her communication skills, both verbal and written, are excellent: She speaks and writes with the clarity and confidence of a subject-matter expert. I might not have known Liz for long, but it is clear to me that she would make a valuable asset to the ARIN Advisory Council, and she would approach the role with the same dedication, aplomb, and perspicacity as she does in her professional life. Thank you for your time and consideration of Liz for this esteemed role! Christopher “Chris” Hall

I am writing to endorse and fully support Liz Goodson as a candidate on this Council. As a senior network engineer here at Crown, my job is to deploy and support the IP/MPLS network architecture, based on guidelines set forth by the IP Network Planning team, lead by Liz. It is well known in our organization that Liz is the de facto Subject Matter Expert in all areas related to the entire network, from physical fiber plant design to complex Internet routing and switching configurations. In my opinion, she is, by far, Crown’s most senior architect and greatest asset, as we move forward to building the next generation of networks. With her knowledge and “thinking outside the box” abilities, she has helped me navigate and solve a multitude of network issues throughout my time here (approx 8 years). She is also a wonderful colleague to work with, as well as a great friend. I wholeheartedly hope you consider her for this opportunity and frankly, can’t think of a better candidate to serve on this Council.

I enthusiastically endorse my friend and colleague, Elizabeth (Liz) Goodson, for whom I have had the privilege of working with for over six years. Liz’s candidacy for a position on the ARIN Advisory Council comes as no surprise, as she embodies the qualities and expertise that are crucial for a role of this significance. Liz has a natural ability to take on challenging problems and devise well-thought strategic solutions. She has full stack knowledge of all network layers and is a trusted authority in all organizations within Crown Castle. Liz has a genuine passion for helping others develop their skills and knowledge, and has dedicated countless hours to guiding and supporting her colleagues. Her mentoring has been instrumental in the growth and success of many individuals within our team including myself. Liz possesses a natural gift for communication that makes her an effective collaborator and leader. Whether explaining intricate technical details or conveying strategic plans, she does so with remarkable clarity and poise. I have lost count the number of times I have asked Liz to “translate” a complex technical concept into an easy-to-digest explanation, which segues into Liz’s knack for prolific documentation writing. She excels in creating comprehensive, well-structured documents that are invaluable for our team’s reference and knowledge sharing. Thanks to her innate communications ability our network architecture and standards remain well-documented. On a lighter note, Liz has an uncanny talent for creating the best memes on demand. Her sense of humor and creativity add a touch of levity to our work environment, fostering camaraderie and positive morale among the team. This ability to infuse humor into our workdays is just one more reason why Liz is a standout colleague. Thanks, Steve Lai Principal Architect - Crown Castle

I’ve worked with Liz for over 10 years and there’s nothing she can’t do. She’s brilliant, resourceful, and driven. If I was picking a dream team in any context from a network redesign project to a zombie apocalypse, Liz would be first on my list. She just gets stuff done. And she gets it done well. As the primary author of the standards and policies that govern the design and operation of Crown Castle’s nationwide IP network, Liz has successfully and repeatedly demonstrated the skill and judgement required to balance the practical operational needs of a large, complicated, and heterogeneous network with ambitious forward-looking business goals. She’s an excellent collaborator and consensus builder who solicits the perspectives of others, works hard to deeply understand, and then adeptly synthesizes that information into her work. Liz’s breadth and depth of knowledge, ability to grasp and effectively communicate complex ideas, and excellence at creative problem solving will make her a tremendous asset for ARIN and I can’t imagine a more worthy candidate for the Advisory Council.

It is with honor and privilege to write this letter for the consideration for my friend Liz Goodson as she peruses even greater heights of achievements.

Roy brought me into the world of enterprise network engineering early on in my IT career and served as an inspiration to myself and many others. Later I had the privilege of working for Roy as he built on his continued successes with the Regional Wide Area Network (RWAN) consortium during his tenure at Lancaster-Lebanon Intermediate Unit 13. I was a beneficiary of the RWAN during the time that I worked in two of our member school districts that relied on his network engineering expertise on a daily basis. IU13 was one of the first large scale enterprise networks in the Commonwealth that assigned IPv6 prefixes to customers due in no small part to his forward thinking vision and expertise. Roy’s areas of expertise include WAN and secure network design, cellular and microwave technologies, voice over IP (VoIP), traffic management, next gen internetworking (IPv6), and more importantly end user training! He is a brilliant technologist who can explain challenging concepts to a diverse set of learners. I would be very excited to see him serve us (and our entire continent) in his role. He is adept at using his interpersonal experience to build policies and procedures that can apply to a wide variety of environments. I highly recommend Roy for this role!

As a member of our SHLB Coalition, Roy always provides a good mixture of technical know-how with a good understanding of the political and policy process. For example, I often called upon Roy’s expertise on cybersecurity and school networking issues so I could be a stronger advocate for improvements to the federal E-rate program. He is pleasant to work with and knows how to explain technical issues in a straightforward and understandable way for non-engineers like myself. I highly recommend him to the Arin Advisory Council.

Roy is an exceptional and visionary technologist, with a strong sense for fiscal responsibility, a rare combination in any industry. I had the pleasure of being a customer of Roy’s for 9 years as I worked at local school districts served by Lancaster-Lebanon Intermediate Unit 13’s (IU13) regional wide area network (RWAN). He always provided sound technical guidance grounded in best practices. Then, for 14 years, I worked under Roy’s guidance as a network engineer for IU13. Roy’s forward thinking leadership and ability to build coalitions allowed us to evolve that RWAN to its current state as a scalable, highly-resilient system that serves over 100,000 learners. Roy was an early proponent of the adoption of IPv6 in schools, helping schools to understand the benefits of deploying IPv6 while also providing technical assistance through the process. Roy has extensive experience navigating the complex policies of the E-rate program, a skill that will make him a valuable asset for the policy development work of the ARIN Advisory Council.

Throughout my career I’ve witnessed Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) in just about every field that were impressive in their own right. These SMEs knew their subject, but often failed to have the abilities to combine multiple subjects into full area of understanding. Daniel, however, is so knowledgeable across so many subjects that he is capable of bringing many areas together because of his broad and deep knowledge base. Given IP is at the heart of all connectivity, Daniel could provide the body for the heart to sit within, so that ARIN is capable of making broad decisions with deep technical applications that many find difficult to connect.

Daniel possesses the highest degree of credibility and trust within our professional community. His decision making consistently reflects a blend of logical and ethical considerations, always putting the customer’s needs at the forefront . Daniel’s exceptional ability to guide a highly technical team towards a long term vision is truly remarkable.

We expect executives to understand their business and be able to connect the technology to the business, Daniel does this every day. In addition Daniel is one of the few executives to proactively gain a thorough understanding of the technology being applied and often provides insightful guidance and to his team, vendors, and peers. In addition to the technology Daniel goes out of his way to get to know his peers in the industry to stay atop of emerging technologies.

Having worked in the not for profit, and research and education sector for 25 plus years, Nancy has considerable experience working with multi stakeholder communities. That, in combination with her finance and governance experience, means that Nancy continues to be a valuable addition to the ARIN Board of Trustees. Nancy was instrumental in the initial stages of CIRA’s creation, providing critical secretariat and financial support in the very early years. I support Nancy’s re-election to ARIN, and strongly support Nancy reassignment as treasurer, it’s an important role and Nancy is well suited for this function :-)

I support Nancy Carter’s re-election to the ARIN Board of Trustees. While Chairing the Board I worked with Nancy closely on both Financial and Governance issues to which she brought an unparalleled set of experiences and knowledge to these topics. The organization has raised the bar in both areas as a direct result of her leadership and more work here needs to be done. In my view, those skills alone should be enough to earn the vote of members. With that in mind on top of those areas Nancy brings a wealth of knowledge in all areas critical to the ARIN Board at this time including but not limited to legal, strategy and a wealth of Industry knowledge through her many dedicated years in the Research and Education stakeholder community. I encourage all members to support her re-election. Paul Andersen Past Chair, ARIN Board of Trustees

For a decade, I’ve had the privilege of knowing Tina, and in that time, I have witnessed her professional evolution and personal dedication to the myriad aspects of Internet governance. Today, I voice my support for her candidacy for the ARIN Board of Trustees. From the vast landscape of candidates, Tina’s has the expertise, values, and unwavering commitment to continue serving on the board. One of the remarkable attributes Tina brings to the table is her unwavering dedication to diversity. In an age where the power of varied perspectives is recognized but often not adequately championed, Tina has always been at the forefront of promoting inclusivity. She firmly believes that a more diverse group of minds, backgrounds, and experiences leads to richer discussions, more comprehensive solutions, and, ultimately, a more robust and equitable Internet ecosystem. It’s not just about ticking a box for Tina; it’s about reshaping the culture of Internet governance to reflect the diversity of its global users. Beyond her commitment to diversity, another quality that Tina possesses is her business judgment. Over the years, I have observed her navigate numerous complex situations, always making decisions that not only benefit the immediate stakeholders but also ensure long-term growth and stability. In a rapidly evolving digital landscape, where the stakes are high, and the challenges are multifaceted, such discerning judgment is paramount. Her ability to weigh the pros and cons, foresee potential pitfalls, and drive decisions that are data-driven showcases a leader who not only understands the nuances of the present but is adept at preparing for the future. When discussing Internet governance, it’s impossible not to touch on her many years of policy work within ARIN, areas where Tina’s experience is vast. However, what makes her stand out is her ability to blend this policy acumen with her core principles of fairness, inclusivity, and innovation. It is this synergy of knowledge and values that allows her to be a pragmatist. Tina’s leadership journey also deserves special mention. From leading teams to building consensus amongst diverse groups, she has showcased an exceptional ability to rally people behind a shared vision. This skill, coupled with her dedication to diversity, means she can facilitate dialogues that are both deep and broad, bringing together different perspectives in a harmonious manner. Her fervor for Internet governance goes beyond just professional commitment; it’s a passion that I’ve seen her channel time and again to ensure the continued growth and stability of the Internet. Tina recognizes that the Internet is more than just a tool or a platform; it’s a living entity that connects us all, with boundless potential and challenges. Her strong values guide her through the labyrinth of decisions, always ensuring she remains a steadfast guardian of this Internet resource. Tina Morris brings to the ARIN Board of Trustees a combination of qualities that are rare and invaluable. Her dedication to diversity ensures she will advocate for voices often left unheard, and her sound business judgment guarantees that ARIN will be steered with foresight and wisdom. The future of the Internet is uncertain, with challenges and opportunities aplenty, but with leaders like Tina we are charting a course towards a better Internet.

I had the pleasure to meet Tina during a period of extraordinary growth for the cable industry in the early to mid 2000s. We were not at the same firm, but Tina shone through as the epitome of collaboration and partnership. While we still have not yet worked at the same firm, Tina fundamentally operates in the same way she did nearly 20 years ago; except on a much broader scale today. Leveraging and building upon her experiences she continues to positively impact everyone she interacts with; this is particularly evident by way of her leadership throughout the ARIN community. She shares her knowledge, experience, and time for the benefit of everyone around her. In recent years, Tina’s work has helped catapult AWS to the forefront of IPv6 adoption. Support for IPv6 across the cloud providers is critical to fuel the global adoption of IPv6, which complements the work we pioneered together while apart of the cable industry nearly 20 years ago as we ushered in the first occurrences of true production support for IPv6. Tina has illustrated her commitment to the community through evolving roles in both ARIN and NANOG. Our community, processes, policies, and organizations are exponentially better as a result of her contributions. The ARIN community is fortunate that Tina Morris is willing to invest her time and talents as a member of the Board of Trustees.

I would be hard pressed to think of a more qualified, better suited candidate to fill a seat on the ARIN board than William (Billy) Sylvester. I have known Billy for many years, and worked with him for a couple. He has always had integrity, demonstrated a keen mind, and shown an ability to tackle complex issues in a way that leaves everyone better off. He does not shy away from hard problems, but never takes the easy way out at the expense of others. His very long and distinguished career on the Internet started with Network Solutions in the 90s, continued with Neustar and Verisign in the early 2000s, through to Addrex today. He has co-chaired the RIPE database working group for the last seven years, proving his commitment to working to make Internet run better and more efficiently. This combination is unique and, IMHO, valuable. ARIN needs people with his experience and abilities. Most are not willing to donate their time to a volunteer position, but Billy is the type of person who steps up when he can help even if it does not benefit him personally. I cannot thank Billy enough for his efforts. I heartily endorse his candidacy, and urge everyone to vote for him.

William (Billy) would be an excellent, well qualified addition to the ARIN Board of Trustees. He has a solid record of strong leadership, building collaboration, and working with RIR policy and governance in multiple regions. There is an instinct from some to automatically eliminate a “broker” as a BoT candidate, however, because the IPv4 transfer market is here to stay and it incredibly opaque, the BoT really needs trusted members with this experience. Billy is on a very short list of people that have experience, expertise, and ethics. I know this because I have worked with Billy in various ways over the last 9 years, he has proven time and time again to have an ethical approach to this business; and a strong desire to make the community better and do the right thing for all involved. The ARIN Board of Trustees has a diverse set of problems and needs a diverse membership to ensure our community is well represented.

I strongly recommend Chris for the Arin Board of Trustees. Chris has served as outside general counsel for us for many years. His knowledge of telecommunications and IP policy is outstanding as he has represented us in both of these areas. Chris’s addition to this Board would be an excellent value to Arin.

I had the pleasure of working with Chris as a fellow board member with the Ottawa Humane Society. Chris brought to the table what you would expect from any board member: professionalism, positivity, passion for the topics at hand, and insights from their area of expertise. Where Chris truly excelled was the ability to both listen to the various perspectives and then clearly and concisely share aspects that were not previously considered. As a result, Chris quickly gained the respect from his fellow board members as a valued member of the Board. Chris would be an incredible addition to any Board.

It is my pleasure to support Chris’s nomination to the Board of Trustees of ARIN. For two years, I had the pleasure of serving on the Executive of the Board of Directors of the Ottawa Humane Society when Chris was Chair of the Board. Chris was steadfastly dedicated to the mission of the organization and brought his extensive and broad-ranging skills and professionalism to his role as Chair. Chris was well respected for his ability to bring consensus to sometimes and not unexpected disparate views related to animal welfare, while consistently advancing the goals of the organization. In my view, Chris would be an exceptional addition to any Board.

I strongly support Chris’s nomination to the ARIN Board of Trustees. Chris provided exceptional support to the Ottawa Humane Society as a Board member, including as Chair of the Board. He was always reasoned and calm and has an ability to cut through to the essence of issues to work toward solutions. His professionalism and critical thinking helped to bring alignment on divisive issues in support of the organization’s mission. In more recent years, I have relied on and appreciated his excellent support of the OHS on legal issues. Chris is a strong asset to any organization he serves.

He has tremendous insight into the telecom industry and has been a trusted counsel for telecom market participants for years. I have no doubt that Chris will be an asset to the ARIN Board of Trustees as he has been on the Advisory Council and the many Boards that he serves and advises.

As a member of a trade association that has been represented by David Zumwalt, three words come to mind about him: steady, thoughtful, and smart. David has been a real asset to our industry, and he’s not afraid to tell us when we are wrong - and then to help think through a better way to keep moving forward. He would be a big asset to the ARIN board.

The Internet continues to mature and morph, and ARINs role in its future has never been more critical. I’ve known David since he was hired by WISPA and have had the fortune to see his ability to look at the big picture and devise win-win strategies to utilize limited resources in the most efficient ways possible to maximize the outcome for all parties. I believe his role in “working in the trenches” with so many small to mid-size ISPs in North America along with his extensive experience in DC will help shape ARIN policy to maximize the usefulness of its resources and enable next-generation internet technologies.

I highly recommend David Zumwalt for the ARIN Board of Trustees. He has been President and CEO of WISPA -Broadband Without Boundaries, a 501(c)(6) broadband industry trade association, for more than a year. In this short time, he has already greatly improved the financial health of our association and deftly led WISPA to help our broadband ISP members overcome legislative and regulatory challenges. As a registry of IP addresses and Autonomous System numbers, ARIN will benefit from Board of Trustee members with a ride range of experiences in high-tech and advanced internet communications. The breadth of David’s experiences is truly impressive. In addition to leading WISPA, as a Chief Operations Officer for a broadband internet service provider, to CEO of an online transactional privacy & privacy assurance solutions, to CEO of a U.S. Virgin Islands Research & Technology Park, David brings a wide range of knowledge about internet service provider and consumer internet experiences.
