I want to thank the selection committee for having the opportunity to present at SQL Saturday #235 in New York City.
There is an all-star line up of speakers this day. It should be a good time to network with other professionals in the field and learn some new things about the product.
I will definitely be listing to Lovin Spoonful’s “Summer In The City” on the drive down. I learnt from last year to wear shorts since it is hot in the city!
Below are the details of the presentation. I hope you have time to attend cool event on August 17th, 2013.
