ACT-W Presentation
I have been a presenter at ACT-W (http://www.act-w.org/) event for women to get more engaged and involved in the tech industry for the last two years. My most recent was an Introduction to React followed by a 2 hour live coding workshop where my attendants followed along while I created a react application explaining key concepts. My second talk emphasized the importance of person branding and how to get started with Github pages. This training course consisted of helping those learn the ins and outs of Github, hosting, domains, and creating a web presence very easily.
