Welcome! This is a new and improved adventure of Andrew Lee at andrewlee.com. I'm happy to say that the old website has been retired. I've cribbed from the last post from the old website, but here's the gist...
A lot has happened since then, but perhaps the most important is that I have moved my blog over to andrewlee.com (woot!). To name a few of the interesting things that has occurred:
- I graduated CMC.
- I've chosen to defer my Truman Scholarship (for up to 4-5 years). Unlike the rest of my fantastic cohort (the Facebook-Youtube Generation), I am not going straight to graduate school (although the exciting world of public service and water law still eagerly awaits me).
- Instead, I am now a web entrepreneur (that sounds really cool!) in Washington DC. After the media coverage of Fantasy Congress in the NYTimes, NBC, NPR, and others, we received calls from textbook publishers and news organizations to partner, so I've placed my scholarship and grad school plans on hold.
- What's it like? We have a house in Washington D.C., found all of our furniture on Craig's List (including a fantastic white board for $40 from Burtonsville, MD). It's tough. Owning a small business is not easy. Working with partners puts you at the top of your game and also the worst of your game. There are many naysayers, but when you're young, pursuing the vision is the most important thing.
- Why are you doing it? Simple. It's a new experience. I have a dream of changing the world of politics through technology and I think we can do it.
