Sorry
March 12, 2008 | Category: Uncategorized
I just wanted to apologize for the lack of posts lately. I am heading to the Clinton Global Initiative University Conference this weekend. Coupled with all the assignments I have due and getting ready to apply for internships my life has been rather hectic. Hopefully I will get back to a more regular schedule beginning next week once the conference is off my agenda.
I am super pumped to be heading down to New Orleans this weekend. I haven’t been back that way since I went down to Biloxi after Hurricane Katrina and I am interested to see what has changed since then. We are scheduled to work on a project in the lower ninth ward (the hardest hit area after the levees broke) on a housing project that Brad Pitt has spearheaded. It should be a lot of fun. It looks like there are about 750 or so students from all around the world attending so it will be a lot of fun to see everyone getting their hands dirty and making a difference.
I will try to post one or two updates throughout the conference as it happens. I am not sure, however, whether I will have an internet connection. If I do you will be the first to know what occurs. I am attending a couple of sessions on Poverty Alleviation, along with 2 or 3 keynotes. The Friday is a networking cocktail(I think I will have the mocktails) reception. I am excited to meet so many people with similar hopes. Should be a real enthusiastic weekend.
I also want to share my new logo. I had a graphic designer do one up for me and I am very pleased with the result. I think it reflects my personality a lot in the design and I hope you will like it too. I am having a hard time uploading it but when I figure that out it will be up there soon enough.

on March 16th, 2008Neat coincidence, I’ll be heading down to New Orleans later this week for a nonprofit technology conference. Hope you have a great time there!
Btw, if you need any help figuring out how to get the image up, I’d be more than happy to help.

on March 18th, 2008Hey Jason, conference was outstanding. When I get a bit more time I will be posting lots about it. Might see some really interesting things come from it.
Anyhow, what do I do to get this logo up?
