On June 17, 2016 at Scrum Day San Diego, I was honored to be awarded the San Diego Agilist of the Year 2015 award. This really meant a lot to me but, as with anything involving Agile, it's really all about the team. In this case it's the SoCal Agile Community.

Without the support of those in the San Diego and Southern California Agile community who put together all of the amazing events we have down here, I would have nowhere to speak and no one to speak to. This is very much a team award for all those I am lucky enough to be involved with.

I have also been lucky enough to get great support at a personal level from some amazing people with amazing Agile minds. These are the people who challenge my ideas and push me to be better, who give me new perspectives, and who help me grow and develop. Thanks to all of you so much! It's been an amazing journey and I know I have so much more to look forward to!

if I forgot to mention you on the word cloud, my apologizes!  I did this quickly the night before and I'm sure missed some really important people! (Pam Fox, Allan Schougaard, and Aaron Griffith for starters)
