I made amazing friends out there and enjoyed small town life very much, but needed to plug back in and wanted to launch a startup here. New Mexico is a weak startup location – missing many parts and move too slowly. I missed the excitement of the real business world and the water. Are u painting walls or canvases?

One of the things I tend to obsess about these days is startups that have little or even no real lifespan. In greater Los Angeles, now being called Silicon Beach, this problem seems to be more prevalent than in most areas. I once had an early employee at a startup I took over who was sales, marketing, receptionist and payroll.

We had raised a small round of funding in 2013, led by a local angel investor who was a member of Central Texas Angel Network, and used the funds to build our first product (a mobile website) and launch with recommendations from friends of mine in Austin the week before South by Southwest Festival.
