Coding is hard, harder still if you learn to do it later in life, or become a programmer after spending time in a less "technical" profession. This is some great, actionable advice from Lynn Root on ways that new developers can find their way in the industry.

How To Brainstorm A Conference Talk Proposal
Lynn Root, Founder of PyLadies San Francisco talks about writing a conference proposal. "It is NOT important that you haven’t spoke at PyCon or another conference before. But do prove that why you should now." We always say there aren't e
nough women speakers at tech conferences. Let's change this. Read her blog post about how to put together a conference talk proposal here: http://www.women2.com/how-to-brainstorm-a-conference-talk-proposal/
Day 3: PyLadies Lynn Root Sharing on Women in Tech
You know your jetlag is over when you sleep through an alarm (iPhone right next to you).
After another day of programming, the highlight of the day was a surprise visit by Pyladies SF's founder Lynn Root (one of us asked if she changed her last name to suit a programming career, turns out it was real. Definitely a cool name to have!).
Lynn shared about her background and experience. Coming from a finance/economics background, she stumbled upon programming from her path to pursuing a PhD. She is very passionate about supporting women in technology and is definitely very resourceful.
It is really exciting to have a vibrant network of female entrepreneurs / engineers in the city!
Here are a list of resources that Lynn shared with us. Thanks Lynn!
