It's a little late to be writing this after Thanksgiving. But I know you've all been waiting patiently to hear from me. So here it is and you can thank me later.

It's my team. Ahhh…so sweet…and a little vain!

Sorry bout that, but for real I couldn't imagine a better group of guys to work with and for everyday. It's just fun. I've been a part of it for a while now. It's chemistry has changed at times and some days are better than others but the heart has always stayed the same. And that's what I'm thankful for the most. Problems are easier to solve when it doesn't matter who gets credit for the answer. Individually we are all talented but together we're brilliant.

Now, brilliance is only a pretty word without brilliant companies to work for. And we work for some great ones. Particularly I'm thankful for Booster. They were the first client I got to work with at Matchstic four years ago and they're still with us. The Boosterthon Fun Run provides funding to elementary schools through a two week program where kids get pledges for what's called the Fun Run. During the program each day the Booster team promotes fitness, education, and character. In the end, the kids help their school's while learning how to dream big, stand up and lead. They're an example of how vital an internal culture is to the life of a brand. Each Booster employee is a role model for each other and an inspiration to the kids at each school. For me though they are a true passionate brand. One we get the pleasure to ignite year after year. Thanks fellas.
