Saw @ladyleet backstage at @Docusign Discover with some Maury Show style index cards, so I had to do something about it ASAP 🚨
"Tracy, when it comes to the DevX panel at #docusigndiscover you ARE the panel host!".

I am looking for a full-time job.
Being independent in open source for 3.5+ years has been wonderful. I've gotten done most of the high-level goals I wanted to, and miss having people & structure around me.
If you know of a staff TypeScript+web developer role, let me know! 🙂
Good morning #DocusignDiscover25! It’s a great day! And great days start with great mornings! Kicked off the conference with a 30 min PB, 11.5 mile bike ride!
Come to my workshop later to talk about building extensible automated flows with Docusign Maestro and connected fields
The weather in SF is amazing!
Had a blast seeing so many people at Github Universe, but tomorrow I’ll be leading a workshop centered on automating extensible workflows using Maestro and Docusign Connected Field Extension Apps at Docusign Discover ‘25!
Hope I’ll see you there!

Do you know what a "wu-tang night" is?
Probably not, because my wife and I invented it during a 2023 blizzard in Buffalo, NY.
We lock our phones away, turn the TV off...
Put on wu-tang, and talk.
That's it, we simply talk and enjoy each other's presence.
We live together, but it's easy to miss out on "quality time".
What do you think?
Do you have other methods for enjoying quality time with your partner?
I’m manifesting/holding myself accountable to finally making it to Magnolia next year (if it’s happening)! The FOMO will finally be over!
More to follow, but we (@_KaylaSween and @_RichardSween) want to thank everyone who was a part of #MagnoliaConf this year. It was so great bringing everyone to Jackson for a week of code, cauldrons, and cornbread.
Videos will be edited and posted to YouTube soon!

WHY 95% OF ENTERPRISE AI PROJECTS WILL FAIL!
We spoke with CEO Of Apollo GraphQL, Matt DeBergalis, on what you should be looking at to be in the 5% that win!
Have you seen these AI projects failing?
Such a good conversation with valuable info. THIS is a good one.

might delete later, but if y'all have any leads on dev-rel, community, or adjacent openings i'd love to hear about it. i'm headed to work tomorrow afternoon and it has become pretty toxic. le sigh.
If you’re looking for an outstanding Developer Advocate to help grow your community and so much more, look no further than Roxy.
Happy to provide a testimonial if needed, but once you meet her, you’ll quickly see why she’s advanced so far in her interviews — and you’ll feel lucky to have the chance to bring her on board.

the longer you stay on the wrong train, the longer and more expensive the return trip will be.
this post is not about trains

Completely agree.
This is something my team is looking into heavily through different mediums.
Whether or not you’re a developer, the new end user facing tech that is now accessible is AI.
Enablement for all is critical.
When adopting and working with a new tech like AI, especially with so many people who are not developers, it’s important to set up the right support structures.
People need support, but they also need inspiration. Great advice from @techgirl1908 at #AllThingsOpen!

If you were at All Things Open on Monday and have a picture of the job board, could you send it my way, please. I have a very close friend looking for work in the area. #allthingsopen #ato2025
