I was happy enough with a slide in my talk tonight, that I turned it into a blog post. Enjoy. Share with someone you think it may help.

Hey, guess what? I’m gonna be speaking at the #PyTexas meetup again. This time, I’m gonna try to distill some of what I’ve learned mentoring some really great people.
If you’ve never had a mentor, I’ll tell you how to get one and what to expect. If you’ve never been a mentor, I’ll tell ya what to expect and why you should. For both audiences, I’ll tell you how these relationships start, and give you the evergreen knowledge that’s a good core to build on.
#PyTexas was great, as always. I got to see a ton of friends, my fellow organizers who are like extended family, got to give a kickass lightning talk (that motivates me to finish out the full talk), and got to revisit Texas for the first time since moving.
Now for the long journey home…
PathRoot 1.1.0 has been published. I finally got around to writing the missing edge case tests, and fixing a few bugs. This release moves the minimum Python version to 3.12 from 3.10.
Excited to give my newest talk, "What a Front of the Front End Developer Brings to Your Team", at @nedcamp in a couple weeks! I hope to see you there. #nedcamp #nedcamp2025

Are you a front of the front end developer who focuses on CSS, semantic HTML, and presentational Javascript, and do you wonder if your skillset matters in the world of modern web development? Do you think about the best way to mark up an SVG to be as accessible as possible, and write Twig templates with (relative) ease? You’re not alone and your front of the front end development knowledge is still important today.This session discusses why your front of the front end development skills are still relevant in today’s web development ecosystem, how to convince your team that a front of the front end developer is a valuable asset, and how front of the front and back of the front end developers can work together to develop powerful front end solutions in Drupal and beyond.Let’s show the web development community that front of the front end developers contribute so much to a team!
I’ve decided that an AI-based feature that I need is one that pops up “Pop-up Video” style factoids when I make a cultural reference in a meeting.
Someone else in meeting: I’ll try.
Me: Try not? Do, or do not.
Popup: “Do or do not” is spoken by Yoda in Empire Stikes Back, the second movie in the Star Wars series (by release date).
Hey all! I'm still looking my next senior front end developer role or a role as a Drupal developer focused on the front end.
I have 19+ years of experience working with small agencies and Fortune 500 companies and focus on writing clean, accessible HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.
