Activity in January[edit]Just a quick note from me— I was fairly open and transparent in my nomination statement and answers to questions, regarding my planned inactivity between October 2024 and mid-January 2025; it is the reason why I handed back the tools in October. (Speaking of, I will be requesting the tools back in late December; context as to timing). November & December have largely been spent on vacation in North & Central America (plus transiting home via Europe) or, when at home, dealing with what we call "wedding season". Upcoming in January, I have a further two weddings, a jam-packed international trip and a week-long vacation to the Australian Open in the first three weeks. Due to this, I will start the 2025 Committee on the "Inactive" list, and will ask the Clerks to move me to Inactive on all matters that are open on 1 January. I will still be active on emails and behind-the-scenes (especially important, I imagine, for the on-boarding processes), but will not have the time to dedicate to being totally informed on case matters during this short period. I intend to return to full activity on or around Monday 20 January, which is when I return to my home city. From there, my next vacation plan is a couple of weeks in August, which is fortunately (for activity purposes) / unfortunately (for wanting to sit on a beach drinking cocktails purposes) a long way away. I am very aware of some of the challenges the '24 Committee faced with activity, and will do my best to a) be active for extended periods and whenever possible; and b) be as transparent as possible with both the Committee and the community regarding periods of inactivity, and err on the side of caution in moving myself to the Inactive list for planned vacations or unplanned periods of inactivity to keep Committee business moving.
