#RenderRoundtable: Keeping it Real with Angie Jones

I wanted to start off by saying thank you all for the immense support you all have shown the #RenderRoundtable, hosted on Twitter Spaces. Last week's conversation with Angie Jones was nothing short of amazing!

This past Thursday Angie talked to us about her journey in technology, both as a Master Inventor and Java champion, as well as in her current position in Developer Relations. But, what we weren't expecting was such a candid conversation about authenticity, accountability, and representation in the workplace, alongside a valuable discussion on how delivering on her promises technically and professionally has "set her free."

As Angie said: "Now that I've had a taste of bringing my whole self to work, there's no going back!" And that is exactly what we mean when we say Render-Atlanta is about culture: Our goal is pioneering a movement that enables us to escape the feeling of needing to hide who we really are.

So this Thursday we've decided to put ourselves in the hot seat to better answer your questions about any and everything Render and to talk about all of the amazing things we have planned for you guys. Be sure to follow us on Twitter, and check out our website for more information on how to tune into Spaces this Thursday at 7:00 pm EST.

And did I mention we've got some goodies to give away?

We absolutely can't wait to see everyone in September, and if you haven't already, don't forget to grab a ticket! Not only do they grant you admission, all tickets include three delicious chef-cooked meals a day (check out our menu!), and an open bar in the evening.

If you've loved the #RenderRoundtable, you'll also love our awesome lineup of over 25 speakers. Get your ticket before they're all gone!

Until next time!
