Last week, I was on the road.

On Monday, I was in Austin for a happy hour that we hosted for veteran entrepreneurs.

My business partner, Tim, organized the event alongside the team at Scout Ventures, one of the OGs of the veteran VC space.

We had an AWESOME time in Austin!

I went into the event feeling pretty wiped out from travel, but I left the event FIRED UP.

I think what sets these events and our community apart is the incredible optimism and positivity of the attendees.

The world can often feel isolating and challenging, but every time we convene a group of military veteran entrepreneurs and business executives, I am blown away by their willingness to help one another and I feel renewed in my commitment to this community.
