A little more about Michael

Michael has been on a creative path since his first box of crayons. He is a husband, father... and devoted to making really cool things!

Born in Massachussets, but grew up all over, Michael has been to 49 of the 50 states. He's walked across the country and has been known to leave a trail of art hanging on the walls of those who've provided hospitality.

Michael works like everything's in a sketchbook & likes to embrace happy accidents. He believes that misplaced pixels are merely opportunities mid-process.

Michael's Presentation

Remote Pairing for Designers and Developers (slides)

The world we live in today allows us to work more closely together in a collaborative process than ever... and yet we are not limited by physical space. More and more people are working remote and in ways that they have found themselves more effective than ever.

Here we will take a look at some of the tools and processes that are used to collaborate with each other, whether we are in the same, or maybe completely different, role or discipline. We will take a look at some tools and processes that were effective in a colocated world and how we have been bringing that to the distributed.

Incredibly supportive sponsors that we love

We think sponsorship should be more than just a link and logo on a website. If you're looking to put your sponsorship dollars to use we have a few pretty nifty ideas to get you noticed and be a fun experience for our attendees. If you aren't boring you should contact us.
