Speaking Engagements

Keynotes, technical sessions, and workshops at conferences worldwide.

“it's a special talent to be able to run an effective workshop for an audience of that size, and you nailed it. Great pacing, great voiceover, hit all the essentials, and I really left feeling I got the Temporal 101 that I needed. (At the conference I attended AMD's, Databricks', and Ema.ai's, and there's absolutely no comparison.)”
