SWW Speaker Spotlight – Ricky Jordan

By

Ricky Jordan has been around the SolidWorks Community for a longtime.  A former reseller AE, and current user group leader, blogger, and Twitterer (I can't believe I just wrote that), Ricky is one of those special SolidWorks users that spends a lot of time helping fellow users.

Ricky's Blogis one of the most popular SolidWorks related sites on the web.  The new layout is fantastic, and the blog is filled with a variety of tips in both text and video format, a gallery that showcases some of his work, and a download area where you can find models and presentations by Ricky.  In short, it's not just a blog, it's a user run support site.

The North Alabama SolidWorks User Group was in peril back in 2004, but Ricky came in and righted the ship.  NASWUG is now a vibrant, well organized, and well attended user group.  The bulk of the credit has to go to Ricky.

Ricky's SolidWorks World presentation sounds very interesting – PCB design utilizing SolidWorks and CircuitWorks.  I'm a former PCB designer myself, and a huge fan of CircuitWorks, so it's a session that's already on my list.  Even if it isn't something you deal with on a regular basis, there's a very good chance you'll learn something about SolidWorks anyway.

If you need any further incentive to attend Ricky's session, here's something that might interest you.  Ricky's wife Christy runs a very popular cooking blog – Southern Plate – and has graciously offered to send along some of her favorite goodies to Orlando.  If you're lucky enough, you might just get some before they're gone.

My official title is Senior User Advocacy & SolidWorks User Groups - but most people just call me "The User Group Guy". I've been a SolidWorks user since 1997, and was one of the founding members of the SWUGN Committee. Since starting the Central Texas SolidWorks User Group in 1999, my career path has led me to DS SolidWorks and a dream job supporting the SolidWorks User Group Network worldwide.
