It’s official; I’m moving back to Boston! I just accepted a job offer from a great start-up called SCVNGR (pronounced “scavenger”) as their Design Lead. They’re the makers of the world’s first platform to create interactive location-based mobile applications. I interviewed with them when I was in Boston a couple weeks ago and they seem like a kick-ass and exciting new company to work with.

I’m moving into an apartment in Quincy, in a complex that my parents’ friends own. They’re giving me a great deal on a 3br or 2br apartment. I’ll probably be looking for some roommates after I get there. I fly out next Sunday (3/7) and arrive Monday morning, and I’m sending my car – along with all my tv, clothes, and whatever else I can fit in my tC – on Friday so that it’ll arrive by the time I get to Boston.

I’m gonna miss the friends and colleagues I’ve met here in soCal, and I hope I can come visit often… it’s definitely going to be a tough transition, but I’m still so excited to be coming back to Boston. I really feel like Massachusetts has always been my home – I grew up there, and I miss it every day. Everyone keeps asking me why I’d possibly want to move from sunny California to the frozen tundra that is New England, but I guess I just can’t stay away for too long.

Now I really hope I can get over this cold so I can work hard for my last week and a half at GoldenComm and wont have to take any days off…
