<div><font style="background-color:transparent;">Hello to Each and All,</font></div>
<div> </div>
<div>Mr. Zuan/Peter Green has informed me of the opportunity to participate in </div>
<div>ICANN's Mentor Pilot Program. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>I hope to participate as a Mentee. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>I have been a member of NCUC for 2 years. I was an observer of the </div>
<div>working group process for the Translation & Transliteration Working Group.</div>
<div>I did so in order to learn how working groups operate and function.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I will be a participating member of the RDS PDP working group that begins</div>
<div>on 26/01/2016. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>As a newcomer to ICANN and its constituencies, the sheer amount of </div>
<div>accumulated knowledge is daunting and difficult to digest....</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I would benefit greatly from the tutelage of a Mentor. I have ample time</div>
<div>to devote to these studies and I am an apt pupil.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>As a non-commercial user of the internet, I have been an international</div>
<div>teacher in multiple cities in China, Libya (North Africa) and Ukraine/Crimea. </div>
<div>I understand the difficulties and challenges of internet usage in many countries. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>At present, I am a USA citizen, living in Nova Scotia, Canada. I am free to travel </div>
<div>to Marrakesh if chosen for this special opportunity to learn from an expert.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>To Each and All, please advise me regarding anything else that I need to do to</div>
<div>apply myself to this opportunity.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Many thanks for your time and attention!</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Warmest regards,</div>
