Conference season is coming up! And this year, some of them are getting back to physical events. It’s amazing how fast we adopted to considering online events normal. But the return of real, in-person events is an indication that we are getting back to what we used to consider as normal. Can’t wait to get out there! These are the conferences I am currently signed up for this fall, both virtual and in-person events.
