Denver: Empowering Imposters w/ Lucy Cifferello

There is a dreadful feeling that many developers experience as they grow in their career. As women, this feeling can pervade in unique ways and might contribute to attrition rates in the tech industry. So what do you do about it? How do you work through feelings of imposter syndrome and become empowered through them? This talk aims on addressing this sentiment with the hope of having an open discussion about the experiences of other's at the end.

Lucy Cifferello

A recent graduate of Galvanize's Full Stack program, Lucy continues to grow herself as a developer by pushing herself out of her comfort zone and always continuing to learn through the Denver tech community. Challenging herself, she decided to talk at this event.

Parking Suggestions

A block or so north on that same side of the road is a lot that allows cheaper parking after 6pm (I think either $2 or $4 for the evening). Before 6pm it is employee parking.

There is also street parking in the Highland neighborhood across the bridge or at the nearby park. There are plenty of 2 hour street parking, but there should also be spots for longer than that if you can find them.

Men are welcome as the guests of women coders.
