It's a rare experience when you get to enjoy someone or something at the beginning. Andrew is a good example of watching someone before they reach their peak, and being there to watch the whole thing.
Andrew is a connector in the true sense. Kinda like in The Tipping Point, Andrew runs in many social circles. We're witnessing the beginning of something, or someONE who's star is on the rise.

IgniteBoulder 5 was the shit! I'm glad to have had a front row seat for it.

Cheers,
Rick

Andrew rocks. He's one of the most giving folks in the community and we are very lucky to have him.

I couldnt agree more. I am interested in seeing how Andrew continues to grow. Who knows, perhaps he has found his calling putting together events like Ignite Boulder and StartupWeekend, and can really focus building like events for all the enjoy.

I was sorry to miss Ignite5, sounds like it was a great event!

Congratulations Andrew! Everyone seems to agree that IgniteBoulder5 was the best and you had the biggest part in making it so. I loved watching it. Thanks to Brad for communicating this to the world so well.

Well said. Couldn't agree more. I was blown away last night as well.
