As much as I love to write code, I enjoy teaching even more. That's part of the reason I started a blog. I feel like I have to struggle to learn new things, and if I can help make that struggle better for other people, then I think I've done something good.
If you are interested in having me speak at your conference or organization, just drop me a line, and I'll get back to you as soon as I can.
