Short personal pitch

I would like to nominate myself - Artem Barger - to serve on the Hyperledger Technical Steering Committee. Since 2016 I'm focused on blockchain-related research areas, starting my journey by participating in the design and development of Hyperledger Fabric v1.0, where the primary area of interest was scalable middleware for blocks replication and dissemination. Eventually have been promoted and honored to become part of Hyperledger Fabric maintainers family, since then actively participating in technical meetings and reviewing code.

During the last 3.5 years, I'm actively contributing and supporting the community in many ways, from meetups participation in providing lectures in universities. Providing answers and helping developers to overcome the steepest learning curve and answer on Stackoverflow, where I'm still leading the top 10 list of most active users to provide answers: hyperledger-fabric and hyperledger, helping users to establish a decent knowledge base in Hyperledger projects.
