[governance] self-nomination statement

[l.d.misek-falkoff]

We  seem to be posting in a similar window of time - best wishes to all.

I also support Sylvia's nomination, and note my prior application.  It may
be possible in the future where some but not total similarity in background
occurs, that joint functions might be considered.  This of course would and
will depend on the wishes of applicants and selectors.

Very best wishes,
Dr. Linda D. Misek-Falkoff.
