Reflecting on an incredible experience speaking at @leaddev.com #LDX3 last week! Very grateful to have been accepted.

Enjoyed discussing challenges growing teams in the era of layoffs, and hopeful my talk can provide some ideas! Slides here 👉🏻 speakerdeck.com/alismith/cre...

I'm thrilled and slightly terrified to be speaking at LDX3 (the artist formerly known as Lead Dev London) this June!

I'll give an intro to the science of learning, based on my experience teaching with CYF and usage in my day-to-day engineering work.

The stage seats ~1000, pls be kind! 😬
