I volunteered as the presentation coach for App Camp for Girls in 2017 and 2018. In my 2018 slides, I covered tips about storytelling, understanding and speaking to your audience, presentation design, presentation delivery, and specifics for their App Camp for Girls "pitch" (where the campers demo their app to a panel of friendly "judges").
