A secret door. A room full of new connections.
A funky barbershop, a hidden speakeasy, and a great evening meeting founders, engineers, and event professionals. Sometimes a new connection starts behind a secret door.

What an AWESOME night! Last night’s networking event started with a walk through a funky barbershop, an okay to enter, and a private door into a giant speakeasy. The red lighting certainly gave our pictures some personality—and gave me plenty of material for jokes!
Hats off to my new friend Nuria for hosting. I met business founders, software engineers, event management professionals, and people working on exciting ideas. I’m already looking forward to the next one.
I’m networking across Chicago to build business relationships: learning what people are working on, sharing my experience in sales, business development, and partnerships, and looking for useful introductions I can make.
Then another friend texted, ‘Meet me over here…’ So Juan Carlos Bosacoma and I jumped into his car and headed to another stop for more conversations, connections, and fun.
Now comes the part that makes networking worthwhile: staying in touch, following up, and seeing what we can accomplish together. If we met, let’s reconnect. And if we haven’t met yet, say hello!
Were you there?
I’d love to hear your story, see your favorite picture or video, or talk about where we might work together.
