Title: Filling Gaps

Description:

From a frustrated self learner with a hobby to an innovator at the forefront of three new product lines. After spending years learning to code as a way to challenge myself mentally without making much progress, I found a horrid excel process that I thought I could turn into code through a bit of trial and error. Had to no clue that it would take me launching a new SaaS offering, tech-enabled services, and putting my company on the track to predictive analytics combined with automated actions.

Presenting:

We would love for you to present! Please contact an organizer after the meeting or on the ChiPy Slack channel (https://chipy.slack.com — signup: https://joinchipyslack.herokuapp.com/). Presentations should be no more than 20 minutes to leave time for discussion. Please send the deck (or link to deck) at least a day before, if you can, to ensure smooth set-up.
