My Hard-Working Husband

James has had a very exciting week! Wednesday, he started a new job with the Utah Fund of Funds. He's part of a team that provides funds to venture capital and private equity firms, who will then invest in new and existing Utah businesses. He's really excited about it since it's a step closer to what he really wants to do when he grows up!

Also, James is a co-founder of a non-profit organization called Young Finance Professionals, which is a group (for anyone interested) that meets monthly to hear from prominent Utah businessmen. Their meeting for March was held on Wednesday, and a real estate businessman named Jake Boyer spoke. There was a great turn-out--James and the other leaders have put a lot of time into this organization, and I'm glad it continues to be successful! If you're interested, here is the website: http://www.youngfinanceprofessionals.com/

This post was too boring without a picture, and I thought this picture properly demonstrated how hard James will work to do the best job possible!
