 * ***Jeff Sweeton**, founder of CodeCreate (and more!) ||
 * CodeCreate facilitates technology, art and design education for youth and educators as dynamic and accessible workshops and activities, linking hands-on, tactile construction with electronics and civic media. CodeCreate empowers learners through creative design with everyday technology and learners' own ideas: // commands that students retain every other time they see those tools //. Be sure to check out these exciting workshops and events by [|CodeCreate] founded by guest presenter, [|Jeff Sweeton]! ||
 * ***Brandon David**, facilitator at CodeCreate, Senior at Lakeview High School (now in college) ||
 * Brandon David has always "dreamed" about video games and began creating his own, coding As a senior at Lakeview High School, Brandon brings his vast enthusiasm and analytic eye to all youth, facilitated a CodeCreate workshop with the Intuit Center for Outsider Art as well as assisting at many other CodeCreate workshops. Brandon's enthusiasm, skill and showmanship are obvious benefits to CodeCreate but he also serves as a model for beautifully realized technology, art and design education.
