Thank you for listening to the Leaders, Innovators and Big Ideas podcast, supported by Rainforest Alberta. The podcast that highlights those people who are contributing to and/or supporting the innovation ecosystem in Alberta.
Host: Al Del Degan I have been involved in software development for more than 25 years. I have started companies, lead companies and worked for companies - doing many different things. I am honored to be considered a leader in Alberta's innovation ecosystem, and I give back as much, and often as I can. When I am not working or podcasting, you will find me pursuing my passions of photography, crypto investing, and wood working along with the occasional round of golf.
Guest: Danielle Barker is an avid Scrabble enthusiast and software developer. After years of mostly creating software as a hobby and as a volunteer, they took the leap of making a career out of it. She is now one of the technical facilitators of the InceptionU Full Stack Developer program as well as doing contract development work for projects she is passionate about. Besides scrabble, they enjoy playing many other games including Magic the Gathering and the Fallout video game series.

Show Quotes:
"I lost my, my job as a school bus driver. That was my last job I had. Kind of just a bunch of other bad things happened at the same time and just kind of hit this point where I just wanted to give up, so I didn't want to go find another job. So I just ended up, taking what money I had and buying a van, and I just lived in the van for six months."
