The command line can feel daunting – especially when trying to learn a new topic. I’ll help you move beyond the basics. You’ll learn some theory, with an emphasis on practical skills. This is a talk that will increase your understanding of the CLI, and help you level up. Topics like bash functions, command substitution, regular expressions and shell configuration, wont feel as mysterious. Hopefully, you’ll be inspired to adapt the material to better customize your command line user experience.

As a seasoned software developer, I bring a breadth and depth of knowledge and skills for creating database-driven PHP web applications. I’ve spent much of my career on the backend—from customizing CMSs like Drupal and WordPress, to using frameworks like Laravel to develop Web Applications. Previously, I organized the Pacific Northwest PHP Conference and the Seattle PHP User Group. I've spoken at multiple WordCamps, and more recently at PHP Tek. I pride myself on my ability to communicate technical ideas to non-technical people. I’m passionate about technology and creating software, and helping others do the same.
