OMG - that is freaking awesome!! I love the conferences and people who are friendly and make for a comfortable environment. One of the struggles I've encountered being a female in the IT industry, specifically the "hands-on" networking/engineering part of it, is that many people are quick to judge and be rude. I welcome all friendly environments! Haha.

I will definitely keep you guys in mind, that would be awesome to come hang out with you all and attend the conference! :-) Thank you so much for your reply!
