New Job, Again

GHX just wasn’t my style and I was feeling a fair amount of stress with my decision to work there. So I quit and got on board at Medium, the small startup in Boulder. I’ve been there a few days already and feel much better. It’ll be a challenge dealing with the commitment required for a startup, but it’s so nice being busy doing something you love.

Medium is building a web application to enable interaction and collaboration between people while working on-line. My experiences in writing this blog and interacting on-line with other families dealing with pediatric cancers were tremendous assets for me in landing this position. I never imagined that I’d be detailing my experiences in dealing with Ben’s cancer during a job interview. I was also amazed at how well the folks at Medium responded to it. They asked all the right questions and didn’t offer any offending platitudes. I’ve been very lucky to work with quality folks in the past and this job is off on the right foot.
