Vazquez or her company were involved in an application for an unknown gTLD at the time that she assumed her role on the Board. The conflict of interest was noted in her published statement of interest, and despite this she voted on matters related to new gTLDs until February 7, 2012 instead of abstaining. In the minutes from a Board meeting on May 6th, it was revealed that Vazquez had withdrawn her application over the phone through the customer service center during the period of TAS system downtime, which started on April 12. She has since joined the [[New gTLD Program Committee]].<ref>[http://domainincite.com/9959-icann-director-withdrew-gtld-application ICANN director withdrew gTLD application, icann.org]</ref>
