It's been incredible visiting Phoenix, Indianapolis, and even Cornwall, Ontario this year meeting other agilists and sharing ideas--I love the conversations that start from one person sharing their experiences. However, this post is all about Dallas.

The agile community in Dallas continues to grow, and I want it continue to thrive. If your team or organization would benefit from a lunch and learn presentation related to an agile topic, please contact me. I would love to share my knowledge and experiences, answer questions, and get to know others in the local community. I've grown through my involvement in Dallas, and it's a joy giving back.
