@werner33 thanks for submitting this! @Danamitecoder mind chatting with Jordan?
We chatted earlier this week over a call and met him in person at the last event!
Hello @SteveChenDC and @werner33 ! Took a quick look at the article/presentation you shared. I think your talk would be of high interest for our participants! Would you be available for a quick chat sometime this week?
Sure. I’m free any evening Mon-wed at 6 or any afternoon at 2
Would that work for you?

We have space this Sunday 2/5 following another presentation, would you be interested in giving this talk then? I'm not available at 2pm tomorrow but could do anytime after 6pm for a quick chat or anytime before noon on Saturday. Please let me know. Thanks!
This Sunday would be fine.
I'll probably give the first of the two talks I mentioned about leading with your work to land a job.
Can we talk at 10am on Saturday?
Thanks and looking forward!

Your Talk
Title: Options:
What your talk is about:
1.Leading With Your Work
When I was looking for my first job, I didn't have anything relevant on my resume. No degree, no highschool diploma, no GED, no relevant work experience. I had to rely on my work to get interviews and then my skill to get me through the interview.
Here is a link to an article touching on the same theme.
Here is a slide show that I might use but it gives a good idea of the talk.
CodeTrack utilizes several APIs in non-traditional ways. It's required creativity and reaching out to some companies to see if they would make changes to their API so that I could integrate with it better.
CodeTrack is a fun product to explore as it is part education, part game and part resume for developers.
I would focus on one-two features and break them apart to show how I built them.
How long will your talk be?
Happy to do any length, really.
