Mrs. Flinger: Code * Travel * Write * Discover

Technical Conferences

As a geek, I’m proud to represent women in technology speaking on topics such as; Framework Logic in ExpressionEngine, Load Balancing and Optimization of EE, Creating User Centric Back-ends with ExpressionEngine and Freelance Best Practices: Keeping Clients and Yourself Happy. I represent a passion for web standards, clean code and building relationships through business.

A few places I’ve had the opportunity to speak at:

EECI on 3 occasions, including Leiden Holland, San Francisco and NYC, USA.
Engine Summit on 2 occasions.
Refresh Bellingham.
EEUK in Manchester.

I’ve had the opportunity to speak on a variety of podcasts as well.

HTM-ALE (Because code plus beer is a win.)
EE podcast.

Writing Conferences

I’m humbled and honored to have had my blog be a finalist in four weblog awards since its debut in 2003. Since then I’ve had the opportunity to speak on writing topics such as Prompted Writing, Story Success, Keeping Your Audience Engaged, and Mom Bloggers and Brands. Writing is a passion so I take every opportunity to inspire and be inspired.

At Blissfully Domestic on a Panel for Engaging Audience

I pioneered a project for bloggers to get feedback from peers and inspire each other to write creatively. In the wake of two full time jobs, it didn’t last as long as we’d like but the plan is to one day resurrect the Write-Of-Passage.
