How to be a Good Presenter and Actually Enjoy It! session slide with Kevin Pittman's photo

There's a lot of resources out there on how to give a good conference presentation, but how many are actually geared towards putting you truly at ease with the process?  Come and learn about presenting from a web developer with over twenty years of presentation experience who is also a twenty-year veteran professional puppeteer, giving him unique insight into public speaking from the theatrical perspective as well.  Learn how to set yourself up for success by making yourself as comfortable as possible from the time you submit your proposal to the time you conclude your presentation.  Who knows?  Maybe next year you'll be the one at the podium!

This session is for anyone who's ever remotely thought about giving a presentation, yet has hesitated to do so.  However, even if you have a few presentations under your belt, you can learn how to improve your craft while reducing your anxiety.
