That’s what the Business Journal has determined are the requirements for being a “Rising Star” in Colorado Springs. This year, I was flattered to have been named one of 30 young professionals in the Springs who have, apparently, made “significant strides” and given back.

I was honored to receive the write up in the magazine that the Business Journal printed up (view it online here), and also to go to the event where they had an awards ceremony at Cheyenne Mountain Resort. Good times!

I did notice, after a few weeks, that I’m the one of the only people in the list who was photographed in a shirt that doesn’t have a collar, but that didn’t bother me much. I’m not too proud to admit that I hate wearing a tie.

Thanks to the Business Journal for the honor! I like living in our great city of Colorado Springs, and I’m very proud to say that I’m friends with 10 of the other candidates and truly believe that we’re all working to build a better community. Below is the complete list, in no particular order.

Congrats everyone! Well done!
