What an incredible time Mark O'Brien and I had at this year’s Mirren Live event in NYC. I was thrilled to speak on Day 1 and to learn from so many other incredible speakers throughout the event, including David C. Baker, Matt Quinn, and Tim Williams. Mark and Dave Currie also hosted a lively roundtable discussion on Day 2 that surfaced a lot of interesting perspectives and debate. The whole thing was a ton of fun. But perhaps most impressive of all was the way the Mirren team made this event flow flawlessly while making the whole thing look EASY! Brent Hodgins, Laura Matthews, Quinn Embrey, Jerry May, Sharon Honjiyo, and Madeline Kraft: you all are absolute PROS at what you do. As an attendee, I was able to navigate to all my sessions easily, they started and ended on time, I saw zero(!) AV issues, and enjoyed a perfect balance of content and networking time. As a speaker, I felt completely taken care of. I always had someone thinking five steps ahead about what I needed and where I needed to be. I honestly could not be more impressed with how you all ran this event and I know that doesn’t happen by accident. Thank you!
