🐘 I’m leading a two hour workshop on Active Record and PostgreSQL database topics at RailsConf next week, where dozens or possibly hundreds will attend.

⚡ This is an amazing opportunity to contribute to the technical and professional growth of other Rails developers!

There’s a patient designer at Sticker Mule accommodating my change requests. 😊

Working on an additional sticker type to bring to RailsConf with a smaller size for laptops and phone cases.
