Are you interested in reaching other web designers and developers? We’d love to help!
Compressed.fm is a podcast, distributed weekly, that focuses on industry news, tools, and workflows. It aims to keep listeners up-to-date on the latest technology and best practices.
Each episode is focused on a single topic, presenting the compressed version of everything you need to know about that subject.
Why did we start this show?
At the core, we have a passion for teaching.
James is a content creator and boot camp instructor. Amy has taught and developed some curriculum for the University of Florida’s Master’s program. Bekah taught college English for 10 years.
There are podcasts that focus on web development and podcasts that focus on web design, but few, if any, account for both.
You don’t have to know code to be a good designer. You don’t have to know design in order to be a good developer. But, the best designers and the best developers have a basic understanding of both disciplines.
The Hosts
James Q Quick
Technical Content Creator
I am a developer, speaker, and teacher with a passion for teaching developers.
I'm a firm believer in work-life balance, the on-going pursuit of personal happiness, and empowering others to take control of their career. My personal philosophy of “Learn Build Teach” has blossomed into a growing community of aspiring and established developers focused on helping each succeed.
Amy Dutton
Lead Maintainer on RedwoodJS Core Team
I love️ teaching designers how to code and developers how to design.
I'm a product designer and full-stack developer. I have over 20 years of web experience, officially making me a granny in Internet years. I live in Nashville, TN, with my husband, 3 adorable kids, and 2 dogs. If I'm not sitting in front of my computer making things, I'm hanging out with family and friends. I love streaming all the things, playing cards, reading, and drinking coffee. Lots of coffee.
Bekah HW
DevEx Lead at Open Sauced
I graduated from the Flatiron School Software Engineering program in May of 2019.
Since then I’ve been a front-end development and Team & Community Building consultant, created the developer community Virtual Coffee, and spent a lot of time educating, listening, and growing with the tech community. I’m currently the Developer Experience Lead at OpenSauced. I dabble in other things like podcasting, speaking at conferences, momming four kids, and occasionally live-streaming.
Brad Garropy
Senior Frontend Developer at Stripe
I like shipping fast and getting deep into the technical details.
I live in Austin, Texas and some folks call me the cowboy coder. While I’m super passionate about building things with code, I like to spend time away from the computer lifting weights, two stepping with my wife, or riding my Onewheel.
