As a person who has run (and won) for political office in the past, the NY Tech Meetup election obviously strikes a personal chord for me. Having a personal interest with politics, I also take interest in reviewing what each candidate can offer as a whole to something that I am very passionate about. And, as an agency that is growing at a rapid pace in the NY Tech scene, Carrot Creative as a whole is interested in the election to see where it can help us grow as a company.

The team sat down this morning to go over what we wanted in a leader for this community.  Unanimous responses all around. We want to work with a leader that will not only help us continue to grow, but help to connect us with the many talented individuals that are already making this community boom.

With everyone from web design and social media experts to business development and user experience geniuses making strides every day, this community has an overwhelming amount of talent and needs to be run by someone that “gets” what the people can do. They also need to find a way to bring them together to maintain this continuous growth.

As active members of this community, Carrot Creative would like to announce that we officially endorse Nate Westheimer for Community Organizer. Nate has proven his interest and dedication to the community and we’re here to back him and show our support.
