Welcome to Nerd Nite Austin!

Nerd Nite Austin #170: Life Interrupted

Thursday, May 29^th, 7:30pm at Barrel O’ Fun and on Twitch

This month’s talks are about rebuilding after life knocks you down.

“Neurorehab & Recovery” by Craig Knapp

A dive into the world of neurorehabilitation and how it helps people rebuild their lives after brain injuries or strokes. A personal journey of recovery and resilience showing how powerful our brains can be given the right support.

Craig Knapp is an Austin based filmmaker who suffered a devastating stroke in 2020 which left him paralyzed on the right side. He has battled back to try and reclaim his life.

“We Value Your Privacy” by Josh Davis

Why identity theft is more common than ever, and what you can do about it.
Massive data breaches are no longer a question of whether, but when. In this talk Josh will discuss what you can do to prevent your personal data from being compromised, and first-hand advice on what to do if the worst should happen.

Josh Davis is a social dance organizer, storyteller, and three-time Nerd Nite speaker. If you have questions about dancing or storytelling in town he’d love to chat with you after the show.
