are the ones who do" ~ Steve Jobs

Welcome! Thank you for joining! If you are new to Ruby on Rails or an intermediate, advanced Ruby on Rails Engineer - you will love this group!

I plan on offering the following:

1. Variety of Ruby on Rails classes. These classes will be offered for beginning RoR developers or intermediate/advanced level.

2. Presentations given by guest speakers(RoR developers) from great startups.

3. Networking events to connect with RoR developers to share experiences and information.

4. Helping RoR developers enhance their resumes and find the right RoR job (also salary/bonus negotation tips).

5. Discounts/promotions and contests for upcoming conferences, RoR textbooks..etc -

6. Tips & Tutorials - follow us on twitter: @rubymeetup, facebook: www.rubymeetup.com

If you have any questions, need advice or are looking for work, feel free to contact me. Would love to help!
