Jesse Loudon: Speaking
I believe public speaking is a powerful medium for communicating ideas and sharing knowledge with the community. Throughout the year you’ll often find me speaking at various technology events and meetups in Australia primarily due to local timezone alignment and international travel safety guidance. My goal with public speaking is to ensure the audience leaves my presentation feeling empowered and inspired to continue their journey.
My preparation for speaking engagements can sometimes take weeks because I like to provide the audience with a live demonstration and slides. I aim to use the latest tools and techniques with key information refreshed per the latest industry trends and best practices.
I’m always interested to hear feedback on how I did for a presentation and can be reached via DM on Twitter: @coder_au or LinkedIn: @JesseLoudon.
