I have to say it’s very inspiring being around my guest on today’s show. Prior to this episode of Off the Record I had never met Keisha Wilson ... and within minutes I felt like we were friends.

Something about her warmth and spirit that grabbed me right way. I hope you will feel it too.

Keisha is an entrepreneur, the founder and CEO of KW Advanced Consulting. But she’s also a volunteer and a mentor to many in the coding industry and beyond.
