My “Drafts” folder has more blog posts in it than one might think. But I surely had to post this one.
It’s been a minute since my last post, and what do you know: we are back in NYC. And it almost feels like we never left — nobody asks me, “you military?” or “how long you been here” in town. Everyone is from someplace else, and they have pretty tasty poke here, too.
I got a wonderful job offer with a new company, which, exciting as it is, means leaving the great team at Nucamp. I’ve been there for a couple of years, first as a Web Fundamentals Instructor, then as a Student Advisor and Advisor Team Lead.

Hey Sandra,
