Many of us put time and effort working towards the next step in our current job, but we do not truly plan for achieving success in our careers. Often, we also focus too much on gaining and using our technical knowledge, without also working on other skills that are also relevant to both our professional and personal lives.

I've had a truly varied list of roles throughout my life & career, where I have had to wear many hats, and gained hard-learned lessons from some unique experiences along the way. In my career, I've talked to many people with the same questions, concerns, difficulties, and fears without realizing how common these are.

It doesn't matter where your experience came from, there are fundamental lessons that we can all understand from life and our experiences that we should be sharing with everyone. We don't always know how to apply these lessons to our current roles, nor use them to our advantage for our careers; every experience contains a lesson you can take from it to improve your life, career, and help others to do the same.

In this presentation, you can hear about some tech & life lessons that I have acquired, for you to learn from them and apply the knowledge without suffering some of the harrowing experiences yourself. If nothing else, you’ll get a few life tips, lots of book recommendations, and have a chance to laugh at some crazy tech stories.
