I have graduated from the Kaunas University of Technology. Studies went okay, but I was an average student. Then followed an internship in game development, which didn't go well (it was unpaid and it took longer than it should have). The job that followed changed everything. Not the job itself, but the people in it. There I worked as a support developer- solo taking care of several projects- being a one man's army. Here I met a senior programmer, who directed me to read the book Clean Code. Reading that book lead me to think about programming entirely different- to focus on the people. At that work, I started mentoring people, doing internal training on Clean Code. Eventually, I realised I want to always have an opportunity for teaching and mentoring- so I have to create a programming community called C# Inn. There, people help each other out with any kind of questions or simply exchange their experiences. In the last year, I have been exposed to Liberating Structures- ways of organizing meetings in fun, creative ways involving every participant equally. In my current role as a team lead, I practice different liberating structures and blog about them on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/almantas-karpavicius/detail/recent-activity/posts/

Terri Addison is a mother of five children. As a single parent, she achieved a degree in General Studies and ran two businesses. Over the past 30 years, she has homeschooled, public schooled, and private schooled her children. As a current private school parent, parent of children of color, and parent of a child with learning disabilities, she has a perspective on education that cannot be devalued in today's anti-conservative environment. She became very concerned as private and independent schools started severely silencing parents. This became a full attack on parent's rights in the past year with the introduction of political and social ideologies in the curriculum. Realizing that being a voice for conservative children was the most important thing a parent can do, she founded PrivestEd.

Ed Barsano is a retired Microsoft software development engineer and world-wide operations manager. At Microsoft, Ed played key roles implementing products and systems that changed the way people access and use information in their daily lives. After retiring from Microsoft with many Microsoft stock options, Ed developed an affinity for stock market trading. Experiencing the limitations of traditional trading platforms and recognizing the impact of advancing technology on stock market trading, Ed put his vast knowledge to work and developed the industry’s first autonomous and truly robotic stock trading app. Designed for the individual home investor to compete with Wall Street’s high speed computers, the trading app gives the individual investor the leg up by taking profits out of volatile markets repeatedly and consistently. Ed’s robotic technology was profiled in Barron’s and used to automate Jim Cramer’s Actions Alert Plus! for TheStreet.com. After selling his company, Ed delivered yet again an innovative trading app changing the lives of investors throughout the world. Believing that stock market wealth should be accessible to everyone, Ed released a free and completely web based version of the autonomous platform. Ed hopes to share how modern autonomous trading apps can help investors use the market volatility to their advantage and boost their profits potential.
