Speaking
I have had the pleasure to speak and teach at a number of conferences, meetups, and classrooms. I love speaking to both present and future developers about all sorts of development topics, from accessibility to fun WordPress experiments. Below is a list of both my upcoming and previous speaking dates and presentations.
Interested in having me speak at your event? Questions about a past presentation? Just want to chat? Let’s get in touch!
Upcoming event… coming soon!
I have no upcoming talks or events just yet, but watch this space. I am always looking for new opportunities to talk about development practices, WordPress experiments, accessibility, or just about anything else. Please reach out if you interested in having me speak at your event. I would love to hear from you!
