[alac-comments] Nominating Committee
Dear Sir or Madam, I am submitting myself as a candidate for an At-Large Delegate to ICANN's Nominating Committee. I have summarized my qualifications below and I have attached a short resume (a longer CV is available upon request). If you have any questions, please contact me. Name: Jason A. Korosec Country: United States of America Profession: Currently - an Adjunct Professor of Law and an active Entrepreneur eMail Address: jak16@xxxxxxxxxxx Qualifications Short Biography. I am a native of the United States - earning my baccalaureate at the University of Rochester, my MBA from the Weatherhead School of Management (CWRU), and my Juris Doctorate from Case Western Reserve University. I have also successfully completed the corporate Systems Engineering development program at Electronic Data Systems (EDS). I have been using the internet since 1986. I have many diverse interests. I do specialize in payment systems, high-volume transaction processing, the impact of technology on sovereignty, jurisdictional issues arising from the Internet, and the Arbitrage of Law. As far as professional experience, I have nearly nine years of experience with the American company, EDS. At EDS, I advanced through the ranks from Business Analyst, Systems Engineer, Project Manager, and ultimately a Senior Consultant. I evaluated payment system marketplace (technology and business) and led project teams in the Asia / Pacific region (China, Singapore, Taiwan, and Australia) on electronic business, transaction processing, and credit card projects. I also developed security policies for EDS' and General Motors' Unix based servers. After my experience at EDS, I provided business and technology strategy services to the French-Dutch company, Atos Origin and its clients. I provided consulting assistance on projects to multinational companies in Western Europe (Belgium, France, Netherlands, Switzerland, and the UK), North America (Mexico and the USA), and in Southeast Asia (Hong Kong and Singapore). Today, I devote most of my time and efforts to EagleCheck. I developed and patented (pending) the federated identification based authorization system that has become the cornerstone of EagleCheck's approach to defending against terrorism while protecting privacy, civil rights and liberty. I am also an active in teaching as an Adjunct Professor of Law at Case Western Reserve University. Geographical and Cultural Exposure I have lived and worked on four continents. In addition to my native culture, I have exposure to many other cultures in Europe, East Asia, and to a lesser degree Australia. As such, my viewpoint on the world and global issues is very wide. I have worked for US companies, non-US companies, and completed projects for many non-US companies, in many countries. This wide exposure will enable me to effectively draw upon my experiences to evaluate (or even suggest) a large number of globally qualified candidates for ICANN. In addition, I should be able to work with a globally diverse set of colleagues because I have done so before. Technology Exposure Although not recently, I have written code in multiple languages (COBOL, C, Pascal, etc.) on many different platforms (Unix, Mainframe, PC, etc.). I have written security policies for Unix based machines to reduce the likelihood of a security breach. I am familiar with the TCP/IP protocols and the basic networking protocols. This depth of experience will enable me to more effectively evaluate the importance of understanding ICANN leadership issues. Business Exposure Through my work at the very large EDS and Atos Origin, I have had exposure to the issues of very large, typically multi-national, corporate clients. Through my work at a startup company, EagleCheck, I have also had exposure to the very small, startup companies. I also teach (as an Adjunct) at CWRU and therefore have experience with technology issues in Academia. My exposure to big business, small business, and academia positions me well for ICANN, given that many of the policy decisions of ICANN will have wide ranging impact in these fields. Summary To summarize, I have a diverse geographical and cultural exposure, a depth of technology experience, and most recently extensive business experience. Selecting me for your important position, will put the authority of this position into the hands of a well meaning, well rounded individual, with the best interests of the internet at heart. Other Neutrality and Objectivity. Relative to the Nominating Committee responsibilities, I am neutral and objective and I don't have any fixed personal commitments to any particular individual, organization, or any commercial objective. Indeed, my education in law demands neutrality to avoid conflicts of interest. Otherwise, I will be subject to professional discipline and would undoubtedly lose my accreditation and license. Language: My native language is English. In addition, through my broad international experience, I have had exposure to multiple other languages and have some abilities in French and Mandarin. Remuneration. I understand that, with the exception of certain expenses, there will be no remuneration for my services as an At-Large Delegate to ICANN's Nominating Committee. Contacts. I have wide contacts, broad experience in the Internet community, and a commitment to the success of ICANN. And, I will consult widely (indeed, globally) and accept input in carrying out my responsibilities. Best Regards, Jason A. Korosec, Esq.
