Meet Your Presenter: Lori Olsen

Lori got her start in software straight out of school, with a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science from the University of Calgary, working in the Calgary oil patch. Since then, she has developed software solutions for the health, finance, and entertainment industries, as well as software tools used to boost the productivity of other software developers.

In her copious amounts of free time Lori volunteers as a local chapter lead (and instructor and mentor) with the Ladies Learning Code, a non-profit devoted increasing digital literacy by teaching coding and technical skills in a hands-on, social and collaborative way.

IMPORTANT: Please note this is a live event that will be delivered during the date and time indicated.
