ICANN Featured Individual: Karen Lentz, gTLD Registry Liaison

Karen Lentz joined ICANN in March 2003 as gTLD Registry Liaison, helping to establish closer working relationships between ICANN and the gTLD registries and sponsors. She has been involved in a variety of projects at ICANN, including initial implementation of the Inter-Registrar Transfer Policy, launch of new sTLDs, and several registry proposals for contract changes. Karen also served as the staff coordinator for ICANN's Nominating Committee work in 2003 and 2004. Her current responsibilities include work on contract renewals, compliance activities, and new gTLD implementation planning, in anticipation of the completion of the GNSO's policy development process in this area.
