Danny Thompson discusses his road to a successful tech career, after working for years outside the industry (frying chicken at gas-stations). He explains the importance of setting goals and following through, and how to overcome adversity, and handle setbacks. It's simultaneously a very inspirational story, but also filled with lots of very practical advice and action items to pursue. For example, the importance of attending and participating in Meetups and engaging with the local tech community.PanelAJ O’NealAimee KnightCharles Max WoodSteve EdwardsDan ShappirGuestDanny Thompson SponsorsG2i | Enjoy the luxuries of freelancingScout APM | We'll donate $5 to the open source project of your choice when you deploy ScoutReact Native Remote Conf 2020LinksAI powered resume builderPicksDanny Thompson:Follow Danny Thompson on Twitter > @DThompsonDevJames Q Quick - YouTubeBrad Traversy - YouTubeFlorin Pop - YouTubeAJ O’Neal:TemplateResumeThis Video Is Sponsored By ███ VPN The Wisdom of the Ancients by Sir Francis Bacon Free AudioBook)Aimee Knight:Amazon Web ServicesEco Performance Bamboo Clothing I Handmade I by TransientCraftCharles Max Wood:The One Funnel Away Challenge!Devchat.tv ConferencesSteve Edwards:xkcd: Wisdom of the AncientsCasablanca (1942) - IMDbDan Shappir:Adopt a puppy or other petFollow JavaScript Jabber on Twitter > @JSJabber Special Guest: Danny Thompson.
