Events playbook

Before:

• Pick 3 people to meet; prep one question each.
• Post a short intent: “Going to SF Python tonight; curious about data quality tools.”

During:

• Start with context + question. Avoid “What do you do?”; try “What problem brought you here?”
• End with a tiny action: “Mind if I DM my notes?”

After (within 24–48 hours):

“Great to meet you at DevOpsDays — you mentioned migrating off Jenkins. Here are my notes + a link to a GitHub action we used. Open to a 10‑minute follow‑up?”
