Bio!
Jay is a speaker, software consultant, and owner of Arana Software. He has been developing on the web since 1995, when the Blink tag lured him away from Visual Basic 3, and has been awarded as a Microsoft Regional Director, ASPInsider, and Microsoft MVP. Recognizing that the greatest application performance bottleneck is a developer’s time, Jay’s continuing quest is for frameworks, modules, tools, and practices that make developers stronger, fitter, happier, and more productive.

Increasing Productivity by Doing Nothing
It is easy to mistake “busy” for “productive.” We fill every gap—messages, meetings, side tasks, even our “breaks”—and then wonder why our focus, creativity, and decision-making keep getting worse.
This talk is about doing nothing on purpose. Not as a productivity hack, but as a practical way to restore your mind, body, relationships, and clarity. You’ll leave with a simple approach you can use immediately, plus a one-week experiment to reclaim slack in your day—because the deviation from the deadline will be far worse if you run out of gas.
