My Defining Moment
When I picked up the phone and called Kim Babjak after seeing her on The Big Idea with Donny Deutsch. She is now my agent because of that phone call.
Who I'm looking to meet
Jake Burton, Yvon Choinard, Richard Branson, Tom Friedman, Donny Deutsch
Interests
I'm all about exploring. Whether it be the world, my mind, business, everything. Other than that I'm a big snowboarder, mountainbiker and I do enjoy a lazy sunday spent on my Sector 9 cruising around.
Somehow I am not getting notifications whenever someone writes on my wall. And honestly, I forget to check this website, unless I get an e-mail notification.
I recently got a job at Harvard University, so I am going to work there for the summer. It's a great opportunity and I don't want to miss it. Therefore, going back to Argentina this summer will be unlikely.

I was wondering what are the steps that I should follow in order to get an international patent.Can u please give me some more details in the field.Thank you very much.
Don't sweat it! Let's talk Friday - I'm free all morning and anytime after 3PM. Let me know what works best for you! Looking forward to hearing from you!
No problem Rob --- I haven't heard of Spark Magazine and I'm surprised I haven't looks like they are aimed towards student-athletes. I'm on the wrestling team at ASU. I'll look into it some more.
Thanks for reaching out to help, I really appreciate it. Want to set up a time to talk this weekend?
By the way, being a subsidiary of Hip Visions, did you work with Matt Wilson in creating your company? Definitely give me a shout out when your business launches, I'd be interested in purchasing some of your products. Sounds like a great gift and I enjoy supporting entrepreneurial companies when I can.
From what I can tell, you're positioned to do some really cool things. Keep on going forward. I heard an interview with Will Smith today, something he said that I agree with is that 'any day in which you don't better yourself in some way is a wasted day.' Read and always look to improve. Look forward to talking with you again soon.
Definitely, after reading your post on starting businesses during the recession and taking advantage of lower wages and an increase in the pool of talent for labor, I determined that you're the kind of person I'm looking to meet on here! Sounds like you're involved in a lot of great stuff, what entrepreneurial initiatives are you working on right now?
I am involved with Clarkson's CEO chapter, actually just became elected President this past semester as a sophomore, so things are going well. I also have been fortunate to do well academically, and I'm working on helping a few friends launch a couple businesses in the upcoming year. I also am applying to study abroad in Hong Kong in the spring of 2011 and want to go Washington, D.C., to study at American University for a semester in the fall of 2010. So a lot is happening up at the frigid metropolis of Potsdam, NY.

Hey Rob, wanted to introduce you to Mike Moye, he's from UCF, figured you'd like another entrepreneurial connection. He's also into the music scene down there, so feel free to chat with him here.
