Six Years Ago Today

It's hard to believe that it was six years ago today when I opened the doors to SamplingLab in Portland.

The excitement of a year's worth of work to bring a radical retail concept to life was an amazing experience with every day offering something new.

While shutting it down after only 14 months was a tough pill to swallow, it shaped my thoughts on entrepreneurship and pursuing every avenue to keep the dream going, until you simply have to move on to new things.

But as they say, with failure comes experience and learning.

Thanks to all the brands who took the ride, and the people I met along the way, many of whom have become lasting friends.
