**Motivation:**
Help keep up the good things going! Personally I think that the actual PSC did an amazing job and I would have re-elected it entirely. As a spot as opened I accepted with enthusiasm when I was asked I was available to eventually fill this hole.

**Candidate name:** Anita Graser
**Introduction / main QGIS related activities:**
I am a scientist, open source GIS advocate, and author.
My background is in computer science with a specialization in geographic information science and I am currently working with the Center for Mobility Systems at the Austrian Institute of Technology in Vienna. I’m teaching QGIS classes at UNIGIS Salzburg and, since 2013, I serve on the QGIS project steering committee. From 2015 to 2017, I served on the OSGeo board of directors. I’ve published several books about QGIS, including “Learning QGIS” (currently 3rd edition), “QGIS Map Design”, and “QGIS 2 Cookbook”. Furthermore, I develop tools such as Time Manager and pgRoutingLayer plugin for QGIS. As PSC Design Advisor, I take care of release name selection and preparing related graphics for installers, splash screens, and website.
**Motivation:**
My goal is to continue my work on the PSC. At the monthly meetings, I aim to be a voice of our user community, being a power user myself, as well as a moderator on GIS.stackexchange.org where I get a good overview of the issues users encounter on a regular basis.
