Speaking:
I have spoke at various conferences, events, and WordCamps across the country. I deeply believe in the spirit of open source and enjoy teaching what I know to others. I encourage everyone to speak about what they know no matter what level, with the philosophy that there is always someone who can learn from your experiences.
