As many of you know, our beloved Ali Vermeil has decided to move on from her position at Roots to pursue a career in the tech space. After taking the month of September to travel and play, Ali will attend a 7-month coding program in Denver and hopes to land a job back in the Boulder area next spring. While you won’t see Ali in a coaching capacity, you will still see her at the shop, taking class.

A few members have organized a farewell get together for Ali at 5 pm (until whenever) on Wednesday, August 21st at the Rayback Collective. All are welcome to attend and we hope you can join the festivities!
