Talks

It's always a privilege to speak at conferences; a privilege that I don't take lightly. The people who gave their time to helping others through blogs and conference talks are a big part of why I wanted to get involved in the open web and web standards, so it's wonderful to be able to give back in that way.
This page is a record of the conferences and meetups that I have spoken at over the years.

This isn't a complete list as I don't keep an archive, sadly. There are some older talks I've done at meetups and internal company conferences which aren't recorded here. I've also spoken at other non-tech events.
