Chances are you are a freelancer now, have been or will be at some point in your career whether its because you’re between jobs or simply want to be your own boss.

- David’s mission in life is to make freelancing a sustainable career choice. He has been an expert on the business of freelancing and coach to top-tier freelancers for the last two years. He recently founded LifeWork, a platform that helps freelancers get paid while they work, not the weeks and months afterward that most freelancers experience. He has been a vocal advocate for freelancers against AB5, working in partnership with Berkeley Law and the Freelance Writers of California Unite group to find innovative ways around the ruling.

- Kristen Tate. Owner & Lead Editor @ Blue Garrett
- Kristen Tate is the owner and lead editor at the Blue Garret, which helps authors transform their books from rough draft to finished product, and author of the forthcoming book A Year of Reading about Writing. She is the founder of the Bay Area chapter of the Editorial Freelancers Association, as well as a member of the American Copy Editors Society. Kristen’s idea of a good time is a fierce game of Bananagrams in a dive bar.
