So, I’ve been really quiet on here for a bit.  I know, I know – I keep saying all these things about how I want to blog more and never do.  That’s my bad, for sure.

So, that said, I wanted to give you guys an update on how things are going.  People forget that behind all the code and graphics there’s a real person.  So, if you don’t care, then there’ll be more posts soon, but here’s what’s going on in the life of the  real studionashvegas – me (Mitch)!

BlogWorldExpo

BlogWorld is less than a month away, and I’m getting super excited for it.  I’ll be doing a BWEChat on Thursday, May 31st on Responsive Design to prepare for the event, so if you can mark your calendars – it should be a blast.  I’ll be in New York from Monday June 4 to either the 10th or the 11th – it depends on how my next item pans out!

(BTW, if you visit this link: snv.me/KCsvij and use the code ‘bwapvip10’ it should give you 10% off – good through May 15th!)

WordCampNYC

I’ve also been chosen to speak at New York’s WordCamp – i’m also speaking on Responsive Design, and will be approaching it more from a WordPress perspective.  No time yet, but if you’re in the NYC area (or not, because I’ve seen a LOT of people flying in from out of the country to drop in) then you should think about coming!

Mission: Moldova

This isn’t a conference, per se, but it is something very special to me.  Starting June 30th I’ll be out of the country for 2 weeks on a mission trip.  I’m going with Justice and Mercy Int’l to Moldova on a two week camp mission trip.  The first week I’ll be doing music class, possibly leading worship, and playing concerts in the park and/or camp with some of the student worship band members at church.  The second week I’ll be also leading music class, but may even be doing some technology mission work (setting up a computer lab in an orphanage, etc).  Moldova is near and dear to our heart, as we sponsor an orphan there.  If you are so inclined, please consider donating to our trip.  You can check the details here: http://www.missionmoldova.com

A Busy Summer

So that about wraps up my summer plans!  It should be a blast, and I’m sorry if there’s an event that I forgot or am missing (or one you’d like to have me speak at and you haven’t asked me – what are you waiting for?!).  The speaking page above has all of the information on my current schedule, so if you want to come say hello or discuss me coming to speak at your event, then by all means send me a note!
