SFDC99 Training in Phoenix!

August 16, 2015

Thanks to everyone in Phoenix, Arizona for spending their Saturday learning to code with me!

We had 60 people show up – most of them women – and we spent 6 hours together writing tons and tons of code! It was an intense day full of bravery, fun, and exploration. I sincerely hope many of you who attended will decide to continue learning Apex and eventually write code in your orgs!

Special thanks goes out to @ThatDarnWoman for organizing this #GirlyGeeks event, touring me around Arizona, being super hospitable, and making me an awesome free Phoenixforce t-shirt!!

If anyone’s curious to see the material we covered, check out the slides!

I leave Phoenix with many good memories and hope for your future – good luck students!

P.S. if you’re a user group leader and would like me to fly over and speak about coding, certifications, or Salesforce careers in general, shoot me an email at sfdc99.mailbag@gmail.com!

P.S. #2 my wife shaved my head. It’s so hot!!

It WAS an awesome event. I highly recommend having David come out to your town – he made Apex accessible, even for an only slighly geeky girly geek ;) Thanks David!
