Kevin has been wrangling data and dodging dirty reads for over 15 years — back when SQL Server 6.5 was considered "modern" and query tuning meant praying to the optimizer gods.

His journey began as an "Accidental DBA" — one misfired report and suddenly he was deep in sys.objects, pretending sp_who2 was an actual plan. Since then, he's played nearly every role in the SQL Server ecosystem: SQL Developer, BI Associate, Production DBA, and now a Data Architect with a mission.

These days, Kevin spends his time normalizing chaos, denormalizing silos, and preaching the gospel of clean, well-modeled data. He’s been known to pivot on the fly, avoid Cartesian relationships, and bring deadlocks back to life — all while gently reminding teams that SELECT * is a cry for help.

If it involves data, Kevin's in — tuning queries, architecting solutions, or just nerding out about why surrogate keys are misunderstood. He’s not just passionate about data — he’s got a clustered index on it.

Win McCormack is an American editor, publisher, author, and political activist who has spent more than forty years contributing to literature, journalism, and public affairs. As the founder and editor-in-chief of Tin House and the owner of The New Republic, he has played an important role in supporting long-form journalism, literary publishing, and political commentary. His career reflects a continuing commitment to editorial independence and the preservation of influential media institutions.

Born as Winthrop Laflin McCormack, he grew up in a family associated with public service, law, and finance. His father served in military intelligence during World War II and later held a senior position at the State Department. His mother's family was connected to the founding of a major financial institution in Chicago. He attended Phillips Academy before studying government at Harvard College. During his educational years, he participated in an American Field Service exchange program in Indonesia, an experience that broadened his perspective. After graduation, he worked in teaching and social services before earning an MFA in creative writing at the University of Oregon.

McCormack's path into publishing began during graduate school. After taking part in a congressional campaign, he invested in Oregon Times magazine and later transformed it into Oregon Magazine. From 1976 to 1988, he served as editor, helping the publication gain recognition for investigative reporting and detailed feature journalism. He also became co-owner and treasurer of MediAmerica, Inc., which published several regional magazines. His early publishing activities included helping launch Mother Jones magazine and contributing to several specialized publications.

In the late 1990s, Win established Tin House, a literary magazine that became known for publishing both emerging and established writers. The creation of Tin House Books in 2005 expanded its presence in the publishing industry. The Tin House Summer Workshop, launched in 2003, offered writers a place to study and collaborate. Although the magazine ceased its quarterly print edition in 2019, the broader organization remains active through books, workshops, and related programs.

In 2016, McCormack acquired The New Republic and became its editor-in-chief. He worked to reinforce the publication's focus on political and cultural analysis while guiding it through a period of transition. He also directed an extensive investigation into the Rajneesh movement in Oregon, which later became the basis for The Rajneesh Chronicles. His published works also include You Don't Know Me: A Citizen's Guide to Republican Family Values.

Beyond publishing, he has remained involved in philanthropy and progressive political causes, including co-founding the Liberty Hill Foundation and serving on the boards of organizations focused on education, public policy, and the humanities. Today, Win McCormack continues to influence publishing and public life through the institutions, projects, and initiatives he has helped shape.

Why This Speaker Belongs at Technical Conferences
Most technical conferences focus on systems, infrastructure, and performance — yet few address the human operating system behind the work.
Founders, engineers, and startup leaders operate under relentless pressure while managing stress, emotional suppression, communication breakdowns, and high-stakes decisions. Scaling a company requires more than technical intelligence. It requires nervous system resilience, emotional regulation, and the ability to lead and relate to other humans effectively.
As a former tech consultant turned matchmaking, dating, and relationship coach, I work with high-performing men — founders, CEOs, developers, and executives — to strengthen the internal systems behind sustainable success and fulfillment. My work blends behavioral psychology, neuroscience, nervous system regulation, and modern relationship strategy to help leaders improve clarity, communication, and emotional intelligence without burning out or sacrificing what matters most.
In an era where AI is accelerating everything externally, my talks address the one thing technology cannot optimize: the human capacity for connection.

Nita Chakrabarty is a matchmaking, dating, and relationship coach for high-performing and successful men, and the founder of MAGNETIC — the world's most intelligent matchmaking and relationship platform for ambitious men.
She is known for blending behavioral psychology, nervous system regulation, and modern relationship dynamics to help high-achieving leaders build emotional intelligence, meaningful partnerships, and long-term fulfillment — in both life and love.
MAGNETIC is a venture-backed startup supported by Audos, an entrepreneur platform backed by investors and founders behind Skype, BarkBox, Ro, and Oscar Health.
With a background in executive consulting and over a decade of experience in somatic therapy, breathwork, and trauma-informed coaching, Nita bridges modern leadership with neuroscience and relational intelligence. Her clients include founders, CEOs, developers, and executives seeking greater clarity, resilience, and emotional depth.
She speaks internationally on emotional intelligence, modern masculinity, nervous system regulation, conscious relationships, and the future of human connection in an increasingly technological world.

Aga Skraburska is Head of Product Education at Nexthink, a Digital Employee Experience Management company, where she leads a suite of educational products that help users master the Nexthink platform. Over the past two years, she has led AI adoption on two fronts: inside her own team, from individual capability through to process redesign, and in the products themselves — rebuilding Nexthink's product education so that it is AI-driven and fits how people actually learn now.

For nearly two decades, she has held product and program roles at ABB, UBS, and a number of startups, building global learning, leadership, and transformation programs. That work taught her a consistent lesson: people don't change because an organization expects them to adapt. They change when they feel seen, supported, and appropriately challenged.

Trained in systems-psychodynamic approaches to learning and coaching, Aga works at the intersection of two things that rarely meet — organizational strategy and genuine human awareness. She speaks the language of systems, data, and leadership, and also the language of culture, motivation, and what people actually fear when their role starts to change. She coaches individuals and teams through exactly that shift.
