It’s a great opportunity for her and one we couldn’t pass up.
She will graduate with her PhD in May and start work in June. This means we are moving during the last week of May/first week of June.
I will stay on with Twelve Horses in business development. Being in Phoenix will gives me an opportunity to open a new office for Twelve Horse. The Phoenix metro area - which includes cities like Scottsdale, Tucson, Glendale, and many others - has a population of around 3.8 million. With close to 10 times the population of the Reno area, my plan is to grow business hand over fist. I will also be even closer to Las Vegas allowing me to better help grow business there.
We are still in the process of selling our house which could be a sticky point. It won’t affect us leaving but could severely affect our cash flow.
We are all very excited.

Congratulations and good luck! Moving sucks, but it sounds like good things will come of it. Phoenix is a bit hot though

8 months out of the year the weather is pretty nice - between low 60s and high 80s. It’s the four months that average 105 a day that have me worried.

That is huge news! Glad you’ll be able to continue with the Ponies. Good luck selling the house… Hopefully the market is turning.

Sweet! First dibs on your office! When’s the party? And can I sleep on your couch in Phoenix?

Dave, isn’t everyday a party at Twelve Horses?

Bummed to lose my Horse Power podcast partner, but I am psyched for you to mix your life up a bit. Everyone should live outside of where they grew up for at least a little while. Congrats!

WOW! Congrats. What a great life change.
Please tell Amy we send best wishes.
I’m not sure what Robert is referring to about a Horse Power podcast partner, but I’m a little scared… maybe the move is for the best…

You thought you hated Californians as a Nevadan, wait until you get to Arizona!
Congrats on the move!
