so my talk is titled on the outside looking in and I am super super nervous um I this is going way back but I grew up in junior high and high school and college even playing the trumpet and I was pretty good played with the United States wind ensemble and

traveled in Europe a bit plain and I played in front of big crowds and in front of a lot of people and this is totally different um standing up here by myself instead of in a group and being someone that is not a programmer or doesn't code not in this

filth at all the only relation i have is that I get to come in and record a lot of your tops so anyway again I'm really nervous and this is the first time I've ever spoken so so this is exactly why i love the Ruby community because of the support that

you guys give people it's this community is definitely different than any of the other communities I've been to or that I've seen as i have recorded conferences so Who am I my name is Cindy Bachman and my email address is Cindy at con freaks com

i'm also on twitter by at sinner and i'm also okay i'm also a wife this is my husband james and he actually gets to work with me sometimes and go to different conferences and i'm really lucky to have the opportunity i am also a mother this

is my little blended family my kids are the two on the right William and Jessica and James's kids are on the left Jeremiah and Jordan and they actually live in Germany with their mom and step mom I'm also a biker and my husband and I belong to a riding

club and they're an extended family I love them to pieces and we have a lot of good times together writing is a big part of my husband dies life so much though so that we made it a part of our wedding when we got married last September and our kids love

to ride our kids love to ride as well with us and then with work I'm the Operations Manager for con freaks and I was the first full-time employee and I've been working with them now for two and a half years and I've been helping record conferences

off and on since 2009 so first a lot of you probably know who this is it's been ornstein and I think he's a great speaker I've learned a lot about presenting from watching him and as I edit different videos I learn a lot as well because i get to

repeat a lot of talks or parts of talks so i learned things over and over i'm going to play a clip from ben's presentation at railsconf in 2013 for just a minute as possible so here's how it sounds like if I sing when my soft palate is down I'll

sing something like we write lots of code and if I instead open it up with my soft palate lifted it sounds like we wrote lots of code and I think you probably heard a difference right there and the way to get to that difference the way to access that soft

palate lift is by thinking of yourself as a radio announcer that's the difference between this voice and my normal speaking voice is a mount of soft palate lift i'm adding myself a resonator at the top of that so would you sing with lows clap soft

palate we write lots of code right there open upgrade your not your style try again Oh oh my goodness okay so from Ben and other speakers but I have learned that it's important to involve your audience so I would like everyone to stand up for just a moment

now has anyone heard of touching or tutting before awesome okay so tutting happens to be a type of dance that is done mimicking the positions that people were drawn in during the ancient Egyptian times so I'm going to show you an example okay that looks

hard it's really not that hard k so been taught an audience and it was a huge audience because i was there recording it you taught the audience how to sing better and then actually leads a 60 man choir on the side so anyway instead of teaching you how

to sing we're going to learn this little routine okay so I just want everyone you first start with your knees bending and kind of hunch your shoulders over your awesome that's why i love the Ruby community you're also willing to do anything I love

it okay so um before I started working for con freaks I work for discovered hard as a student loan collections agent and it sucked I'm a really nice person and trying to get people to pay their student loans that are like hundreds of thousands of dollars

once I didn't realize people spent how much money on school like hundreds of thousands of dollars was not the job for me and at times I had helped con freaks record conferences and I was a single mom I had gotten a divorce in 2007 and my daughter was one

and my son was seven years old so I did what I had to do and I was also going to school and had been accepted into nursing program but there was a three-year wait so I worked at discover and worked on the side with con freaks and if you didn't already

know um the owner of concrete just happens to be my brother and I'm such an emotional person I hate this anyway so my brother is Kobe Rehnquist and I went with him to several conferences and recorded recorded them and it had got to the point where he decided

he was either going to sell con freaks or he needed to grow it and this it's not his main job you know this is kind of his sight thing and so I decided that I would quit my job would discover and work full time for concrete's and it's the best

decision I've ever made because in January I could have gone into the nursing program but instead I'm up here so um one of the things I enjoy about conferences is all the swag and I'm sure there's some cool stuff in there but when you go to

28-30 conferences a year you get a lot of stuff and I've got flash drives beer glasses I've listed a bunch things like pens flashlight screwdrivers mint tins gum bag stress balls water bottles beanies frisbees screen cleaners sunglasses and of course

t-shirts and the t-shirts I've had so many of them from sponsors and different conferences I've given a lot away and I've also used them to wash my bike and clean my bike so some of them are really good rags they shine really well but I didn't
