HAPPY NEW YEAR!
Finally, another full year of web traffic! Time sure does go by fast! My goal was to blog more during 2018 than 2017. Below is the breakdown:
Total # of Blogs Posted (2017 vs 2018)
2017: 37
2018: 39
Ha! Only 2 more blog posts in 2018 but it was a pretty busy year!
What Happened in 2018
The BIGgest thing that happened in 2018 was the birth of my daughter! :)
I stepped into the wonderful world of public speaking for the very first time and spoke at four SQL Saturdays.
I was accepted into the IDERA ACE Class of 2019.
In 2018, the “interview series” blog posts grew to 40+ interviewees. I am extremely honored and thankful to all the professionals that participated in the interview. [Read the interviews here.]
