Writer, Agilist, Elder Geek

Well if you’re looking for a speaker on careers, creativity, or geekery (or preferably all three) I’m back at it, folks!
With my presentation on Quest For Employment at PMI Silicon Valley, I’m officially returning to doing speaking beyond conventions. I had to take a break with all the crazy, and to get some new material together. So remember if you need a speaker – in person or online via Skype, etc., let me know!
You can find my presentations listed here.
