EEConf 2022 Fall Summit

Chances are if you’ve spoken to Erik Reagan for any length of time, you’ve heard him talk about his family. His amazing wife and kids are his world and it does not take long to discover that. He is a huge proponent of being intentional with time and keeping work at work. (His wife thinks that’s pretty cool.)

Erik’s career has been an evolution from musician, to developer, to entrepreneur. He has a variety of interests these days, but what ties them all together is a hunger to learn how and why things work. What was once “How does this chord progression work?” turned into “How does a dependable website get built?” and eventually became “What does it take to build a great company?” Now, in addition to running a world-class branding agency, Erik coaches and consults with other agency owners helping them build businesses that thrive.

Robin got involved with EllisLab products in 2002, using pMachine Pro to build a personal site. Since then, her casual interest in web development has grown into an obsession. She’s now a fair hand at PHP and MySQL and enjoys nothing more than seeing what new tricks ExpressionEngine can be coaxed into performing.

Caroline Blaker Founder, Aquarian Web Studio Caroline C. Blaker is a 14-year ExpressionEngine veteran who is interested in helping heart-centered entrepreneurs develop the careers of their dreams. As the head of the business she founded, Aquarian Web Studio, she works with multiple technologies and is excited about the future prospects for ExpressionEngine. When she’s not building websites she is studying them - Analytics, SEO, and online shopping. She is also interested in personal development and belief systems, and approaches problem solving in ways informed by this experience.

Coming from a Product Design and Mechanical Engineering Design background, Oliver first started tinkering with HTML in 1998 and moved from Mechanical Design to Website Design with a UK design agency for 3 years. There he worked on corporate and e-commerce sites. In 2003, Oliver moved to full-time self-employed as IC360, designing and building websites and interactive multimedia tools. 

Established since 1999, IC360 have the experience that counts…    customer service that matters and high production values that make a difference. All websites are custom designed and built from scratch…    because we know that quality matters and standing out from the crowd really does make a difference.

“ExpressionEngine has given me the power to create…    above and beyond what I’d not normally be able to achieve.”

Patrice started managing digital projects 20 years ago, starting with a pioneering ecommerce music company during the .com boom in the 90s. Since then, she’s managed projects big and small for companies, agencies, and now as a freelance project manager - projects ranging from mobile apps to large scale CMS-driven websites, and even print projects on occasion. An active member and writer for the larger Digital Project Management community, she’s bringing her PM skills to EEConf to share!

Eric Lamb has been a professional software developer for over 20+ years, specializing in Internet technologies and development. For 10 of those years, he swam the corporate waters working in marketing for the entertainment industry out of Los Angeles. The other 10+ he’s been a member of the ExpressionEngine community while working as a professional developer and consultant.

I’m Doug! I’m a developer and founder at tripleNERDscore, focused on creating opportunity for partners through websites, apps, and supporting development teams. I have been programming since I had a TRS-80 and saved programs on cassette tapes, and am a huge fan of, and core contributor to, ExpressionEngine! I also build in Laravel and Vue and whatever I can get my hands dirty with.

When not guzzling coffee and yelling at the keyboard (some call it programming), I am spending time with my amazing wife and girls, exploring abandoned places, listening to metal and Wu Tang, and working to bring some good to the world. Come talk nerdy to me!

Hi, I’m Leslie Camacho and my life’s mission is to help entrepreneurs get what they want from their businesses. In my 25+ years running software companies* and digital agencies as an owner/Visionary, CEO, and COO/Integrator, I have learned first hand that EOS is the best way for entrepreneurial teams to live their values in all aspects of life so they can grow successfully, have a big impact, and build a legacy that honors their loved ones. 

Living my values is critical and as such I am especially passionate about helping underrepresented (queer, BIPOC, women, immigrant, disabled, neurodivergent) founders leverage the best parts of capitalism for social justice and creating generational wealth for their families. I am committed to keeping my client portfolio at least 50/50 with traditional & under-represented owners.

If you are willing to set aside ego and be open, honest, and leave the bullshit at the door, I will pour my heart & mind into helping you and your leadership team grow successfully with EOS! 

* I’m a CMS OG. 

Beyond his prodigious understanding of web development and interactive design, he’s a guy who does a bit of everything. Knows how to cook well, makes a mean kimchi, takes decent pictures, does music, plays badminton competitively, hikes, and he knits scarves that would sweep you off your feet.

My own career began in the insurance industry, after which I transitioned into technology, and eventually moved towards people management & HR. I have a soft spot for career changers, mainly because I am one.

In the last decade, I’ve spent time not only discovering my own career path, but I’ve honed the craft of helping others find theirs too. From technical recruiting to running coding bootcamps, I’ve worked with everyone from fresh high school grads to career veterans to help them identify what’s missing and recalibrate their path towards professional fulfillment.

Bryan is a developer on the ExpressionEngine team.
