We will miss you Mikey

Mike Kallai Jr. passed away suddenly over the weekend.  Mike was an amazing person and will be missed by everyone.  Maj Mike Kallai was a pilot for the Air Force, stationed in Japan.  Mike was an All American wrestler for the Air Force Academy and an All State Wrestler in Ohio.  He was one of the most intelligent, kindest, athletic, modest, and simply put - admirable people I have ever met.  I will always cherish our friendship and the great times we spent together learning about life and achieving great things. We will all miss you Mikey!  Our prayers are with you.

Agile-Estimator.com is on the up!

I’m really excited about the progress my new start-up (Agile-Estimator.com) has gained over the last few weeks.  The development efforts are coming along strong and things are starting to take shape.  

AE was one of the finalists for a slot in the Spark Charleston Incubation program (http://www.sparkchs.com/).  Located in the tech sector of Charleston, SC, Spark is a privately funded incubation platform designed to support high potential start-up firms in the Charleston area.  The ultimate goal being to “spark” the local tech sector and economy.  

Yesterday I found out that AE was one of three companies accepted into the program.  I’m ecstatic about this opportunity and extend a warm thank you to Chris and the board for bringing AE into the program.  

There is much work do be done in the coming weeks.  As development velocity continues to improve I expect to have a fully functional piece of software in four-six weeks.  We are working through infrastructure architecture at the moment. We have selected Media Temple (http://mediatemple.net/) due to their awesome ability to scale.  Looking forward to building a lasting partnership with them.
