Marty's Involvement with Ruby Central

Marty Haught became involved with Ruby Central in 2012, stepping in as a board member and conference organizer during a pivotal time for the organization. His primary role was focused on improving the quality of conferences, such as RubyConf, which had previously been less structured. He took the lessons learned from organizing Rocky Mountain Ruby to enhance the overall experience for attendees, bringing in systems and practices that fostered better organization. This included the establishment of a program committee, allowing for a collaborative approach to selecting talks, thereby enhancing the diversity and richness of the conference program.
