Attendee's Perspective
Vanessa Hurst, a database analytics engineer from NYC, shares her thoughts on working at the GiveCamp during the weekend:
She helps run "Developers For Good" that helps volunteer software developers on how to use their skills for good causes. She's also helps train women (and men) on introductory technology topics through http://girldevelopit.com/. Thanks Vanessa!
Final Thoughts
The entire day 3 event was: exciting, fun, exhausting and completely rewarding! I hope that we'll have a chance to do another GiveCamp with Microsoft in the future.
