Jessamyn West


At TLA this year I had the pleasure to hear Jessamyn West speak. If you ever have that opportunity do not miss her presentation. She presents so very well, includes plenty of humor and discusses principles to which we should all pay more attention. Even if you happen to disagree with her about something, her skill as a speaker and considered thoughts are worth hearing. Thank you Jessamyn for one of the high points of the conference.
