Speaking at DFW Beyond – 10 Scrum Power Ups that Work!
November 17, 2019 Category: Events 1 Comment »
I’ll be presenting on “Scrum from the trenches – 10 Power Ups that work!” – this is a fun talk that digs into some areas that aren’t always obvious right away. Scrum is incomplete *by design* – these of some of the Scrum practices that I’ve found helpful over and over again in the last many years. As a technology leader, consultant and agile coach.

DFW Beyond is one of the Summit conferences that Capital One in Plano has been organizing. I’m really excited to attend and participate in a full day of great speakers. Like many conferences I speak at – one of the hardest parts is all of the great sessions and speakers that are on at the same time as me. Check out the schedule, register – and hope to see you there!
Coding Naked at the Ft. Worth Code Camp!
March 20, 2013 Category: Events 1 Comment »
Last Saturday, I had the privilege of presenting at the first ever Cow Tow Code Camp in Ft. Worth, TX! We were in the beautiful corporate headquarters of Pier 1 – I had an absolute blast! My presentation was “Coding Naked – TDD on the Edge” Which is a look at the fundamentals of Test Driven Development, with a special look at the road blocks that most people run in to when adopting TDD and some practical approaches to overcome those roadblocks. This talk is a part of a series of talks that focus on Software Craftsmanship and reducing technical debt.
Special thanks to the organizers and to everyone that came out and made it a great day!
Speaking in March

This is just a quick note that I’ll be presenting at two different events in the DFW area this month. Hope you can make it!
North Dallas .NET Users Group – March 3rd
First, Wednesday March 3rd, I’ll be at the North Dallas .NET Users Group talking about Model View View-Models (MVVM) for your Silverlight Applications. If you’ve ever seen my Dependency Injection for Silverlight talk, this is pretty much the follow up to that. (above is a snapshot from the last time that I spoke there.)
Technically Speaking DFW – March 27
Have you ever wanted to be a technical presenter, but you weren’t sure how to get started? Or do you want to take your technical presentation skills to the “next level”? This this is the event for you! I love the idea of events like this, and I was honored to be invited to participate. Maybe this will spark more interest in groups like Presenter Mentor?
Teresa Burger, awesome community member and talented developer over at Woot! is organizing this event. It’s $50 to attend, includes lunch, and is a full day of Dave Gunby, Microsoft’s Chris Koenig, MVP extraordinaire Tim Rayburn and also yours truly.
Register for both!
- Register for the North Dallas DNUG – Wednesday March 3rd (Free)
- Register for Technically Speaking DFW – Saturday March 27 ($50)
Yep, this is going to be a fun month! Hope to see you there!
