Last night, I attended a gathering in support of Tom Boasberg, the President of Denver Public Schools. Tom and I worked together at Level 3, where until about two years ago, Tom was head of Corporate Development. Level 3’s acquisition of ICG Communications was spearheaded by Tom–to this day, I am smarting over how Tom out-maneuvered both John Scarano and me.
With great fondness (and a sense of pride), I watched Tom speak to the group for about 45 minutes. I was there in support of Colorado Uplift, a charity that works closely with the Denver Public Schools in support of inner city youths. I have been involved with Uplift for several years and continue to be amazed at the impact it has on school children.
Tom was kind enough to recognize Colorado Uplift in his talk. This was appreciated by me and the other board members of Colorado Uplift that attended the event.
Seeing Tom made me think about our mutual friend Don Gips. What is Don doing now? (…tomorrow)
