Made it home from the #GDoCExpo watch party.

Good times all around - I feel like I've contributed plenty to the hashtag today, thanks to everyone who liked/shared the posts.

And to all the folks I got to meet/hang around with at OS NYC, I appreciated sharing that space with all of y'all.

Hats off to you and Sharpie for being the voices of the expo guiding us this week! And kudos to the whole team (of course) for such a great endeavor!

#GDoCExpo is truly one of my favorite weeks of the year for a reason. 💚
