Speakers! Round 4!

Our last round (officially) of speaker announcements is here. Let’s take a moment to give all our speakers a round of applause.

Keep your eyes peeled next week for an announcement if you are interested in presenting something at WCSLC but you didn’t get your talk in on time or didn’t feel confident enough to submit a full 30 minute presentation.

Without further ado, here are your WordCamp SLC speakers!

Jo Murgel

Jo Murgel, known online as “jomurgel,” is a front-end developer and designer at WebDevStudios living in Boise, ID. He’s been working in the world of web design and development since 2007. In 2008, quite by accident, he discovered WordPress and has been smitten ever since.

When he’s not in front of a computer, he’s behind the lens of a camera and building furniture for his five fur babies.

Velda (supernovia)

An artist raised by geeks in the beautiful Utah mountains, Velda has been using computers as a canvas for digital expression for as long as she can remember. She loves to help others do the same. With her ridiculously long list of interests and activities, it’s best to simply say that Velda is a huge fan of the universe and the people in it.
