Registration has only been open for 6 days and I am happy to report that all of my classes have students. Hooray! Spaces are still available if you're interested in signing up. I would recommend heading over to the site as soon as possible since classes do sell out. Remember, register early and often...no wait, I think that's voting. :)

I hope to see you in Milwaukee!
