Just what I am up to

I live in South Africa 🇿🇦

Prelude

I founded a company named Prelude.

I've been working in software dev education for more than half a decade. I'm taking everything I've learned and I'm using it to craft premium quality learning experiences. I then sell the workshops at reasonable prices.

I have a few different goals for this business:

  • I want to grow it. I believe good education can be scaled
  • I want to build a place where teachers can flourish
  • I want to generate enough excess goodness that I have some to share with folks who can't afford the training

This is my main thing right now.

Guild of Educators

This is a free and open community for teachers and educators. We are currently focusing on folks who teach Python.

The Guild is pretty new. It aims to empower teachers and educators by:

  • Spreading skills
  • Providing resources
  • Sharing opportunities
  • Being a community

Other community stuff

  • I am a part of the Python Software Foundation's Education and Outreach workgroup
  • I'm helping ot organise PyCon Africa 2025
  • I'm helping to organise DJangoCon Africa 2025

Other than that, I speak at a lot of Python conferences.

Here is a talk I did in 2024 that I'm quite proud of. Check it out if you have a moment:

I'm running some technical training over at Prelude. These are damn fine learning experiences for individuals and teams.
