March Madness Consumes Alex
With Alex out of town for his annual March Madness trip, Matthew Sharp filled in admirably as co-host for this week's newscast. Robb gave a bit of a debrief about this week's SNOWFROC conference. And Matt revealed what's next on the agenda for his career - CISO for NYC headquartered Logicworks. While we're sad to have him leaving Colorado, we will stay in touch, and he mentioned to be on the lookout for Denver-area jobs for Logicworks.
