Old Talks

Over the last few years, I’ve had the opportunity to speak as several user groups and conferences. Currently I give the “PHP Basics” presentations for the Utah PHP Usergroup each month.

I am currently available to speak at conferences and user groups. Feel free to contact me to see if I am available for to speak at your event.
