Something really magical happened this week. I don't know if it was just me that felt it or if the reach was farther. But it touched me on such a deep level I hope I never forget this feeling. I attended Cvent's annual conference. Which I've done many times before (I think this might have been my 7th??).

But this year I had the extreme honor of doing a panel discussion with a few ladies I hand picked to be on the panel with me. The idea came up last year at the conference as a sort of showcase of badass women in tech. A year ago I had no idea what this week would BE or feel like. A Little Back Story
