Likewise, wish I could have stuck around! but thanks to all you guys at Blitz. Had an awesome day and learnt a tonne :) Advice for anyone heading to Blitz on the later dates: get enough sleep so you have a lot of energy to talk to a lot of people! Also, have a few questions in mind relating to your work to ask at the…
