On the Cloudways blog they've posted another interview with a member of the PHP community. This time they talk with Anna Filina, a well-known speaker and one of the organizers of the Confoo conference that happens in both Montreal and Vancouver.

Today we are honored to have Anna Filina for this interview. She was a vice president at FooLab and an organizer for ConFoo, a world-renowned conference for developers in Montreal and Vancouver area. Additionally, Anna speaks regularly at international PHP conferences, provides training and consultancy to the developers around the world.

In the interview Anna answers questions about:

• How she got started in development
• What topics she usually covers in her training sessions
• Her favorite framework
• Her opinions on conferences

The interview finishes with Anna talking about some of the things she does to unwind and relax when she's not training or running Confoo.

The Voices of the ElePHPant podcast has posted a new community interview, this time with Anna Filina, an organizer of the ConFoo conference.

It's a short interview (about seven minutes) where Cal asks her three questions:

• where does she find inspiration for her talks?
• what's the hardest thing about organizing a conference (like ConFoo)?
• what do you look for in speakers and talks?
