And this stuff matters! There are different challenges, communities, and cultures. And not just location, small/large chapters are very different and need vastly different approaches.

@OferMaor knows, probably better than most, the delicate balance between community needs, global vs local communities, corporate vs independent support, rich vs poor. He has spent the last 9 months on the current board, doing a fantastic job with a lot to show for it.

You should probably already know why to vote for @InfosecVandana, if not here is a thread: https://twitter.com/JoshCGrossman/status/1167887872046710785 … . In short: Vandana is a fabulous contributor, often travelling at her own expense to teach programmers and newbies.

Vandana brings a fresh perspective, very conscious of diversity and inclusion of many segments (as she said in her keynote at @AppsecUSA). She is a fierce fighter for ethical behavior, and she will know what is right.

Lastly, @pendo19 is also on the current Board, and he has been bringing a fresh perspective on how to make OWASP better - and has been following through. Just listen to some of the Board meeting recordings to hear his on point comments.

I will also point out that there are a few other fantastic candidates! But I chose @OferMaor @Kerberosmansour @pendo19 @InfosecVandana because they bring something unique and valuable to the board, that we would not otherwise have there.
