Meet Courtney!  She has been here in Boulder for ten years and she says she has never been bored since living here! “There is so much park and open space and water here,” she says.  Courtney has been a nanny for ten years, so having so much open space has been great for the kids, too! Courtney rides horses, kaiaks and loves the outdoors.  She also loves Boulder for its options with healthcare. “Boulder is so integrative and the community is saturated with therapists,” she says, which is great for Courtney, who is in school for clinical counseling! Thanks Courtney!  Read More

“Hello Joshua, I’m from Colorado Springs and I have three sisters and my two older sisters went to CSU for college and when I viewed the campus on my visit there and then compared it to what I viewed at the CU campus, I could already see that I was leaning towards this beautiful university.

I think that my favorite thing about Boulder is the people that I’ve met and see and... Read More

Fitness devices and apps can give us feedback on... Read More

Are you over the age of 55?  (If you’re not, share this with your parents or grandparents, please.)  How do you feel about marijuana?  You’ve probably grown up in the post baby boomer generation when the war on drugs included marijuana labeled as the gateway drug. That probably sounds crazy, given the fact that 28 states now have laws in place for legal access to cannabis, while ten states have measures on the 2018 ballot.  While scientific evidence shows the medical benefits of cannabis, beware of political scare tactics that use the word “marijuana” as they are often inaccurate, false,... Read More

The Marijuana for Medical Professionals 2018 conference in Denver started on Sunday morning, October 14th, wrapped up at the end of the day on Tuesday, October 16th, and it was incredible!

On top of learning so much, I’m very happy to report there was... Read More

It’s that time of the week again, and to kick things off I’m implementing a new topic. Once a month I will be blogging about an up and coming startup in Boulder. For the first “Startup of the Month”, I will be focusing on a recent tea startup called Wu Mountain Tea. Wu Mountain was co-founded by University of Colorado Student, Dylan Rothenberg. Dylan, President of Wu Mountain Tea, originally went to China as a Boren Scholar to study Chinese, and ended-up living and working in the famous Tea Markets of Gungzhou where he learned to source tea for a European premium tea distributor.... Read More
