Ringing the Closing Bell on Nasdaq
The SPS Commerce executive team, along with our spouses, got to ring the closing bell for NASDAQ today! This was a career highlight for me as I approach my ten year anniversary with SPS, and it was even better that Tammy was able to be there with me, as well as the amazing leaders I get to work with. Everything about this experience was so much fun.
A huge thank you to all of TeamSPS for making our company so great, and to our customers for putting their trust in us and the World’s Retail Network!

And some of my photos.
Tammy and I had a great time exploring New York, and getting plenty of steps in, on a 5.5 mile walk this morning.
Gorgeous day to enjoy a walk along the High Line in Manhattan. Just one month after Tyler and I walked it and the everything was so much greener and some flowers were showing. Walking the High Line is now a tradition for any trip to New York!
Other times on the High Line: 2012, 2018, 2023 (Tyler and I), 2023 (Tammy and I), and 2023 (Family).
As someone who is pretty terrified of heights, this Edge NYC experience seems horrifying. Lay on a glass floor 100 stories in the sky? Oh for sure no. Hard pass. Talk to the hand. Oh, and if that isn’t enough, you can do a City Climb? 😱
Subway trains parked with Manhattan skyscrapers in the background.
Wasn’t planning on it but walked by B&H Photo Video and had to go in and experience the most amazing electronics store I’ve ever been to. It’s like a candy store for gear!
Evening tacos at Los Tacos No. 1 after seeing Life of Pi. Tacos were amazing!
Tammy and I enjoyed seeing Life of Pi on Broadway at the Gerald Schoenfeld Theatre. The performance were powerful and it was amazing how they brought the animals to life. Hiran Abeysekera in the lead role of Pi was great. 🎭
It was great to join the Twin Cities Business Women in Leadership event and for SPS Commerce to be recognized as well! The data and stories shared from the panel of women leaders was interesting and insightful. Checkout Moving Beyond ‘Firsts’ for more.
Two days ago it was 87 °F, actually hot. Today cold, windy, and snowing. 🤷♂️
For a technologist, I can think of no better way to spend $20 than a month of experimentation with ChatGPT Plus.
For another $20 the second best is to get a little Ethereum and DAI, create a wallet, and learn how to buy a $1 NFT on NiftyInk.
Voted for GIP-82: Gnosis DAO co-fund a community owned forest. I like all the aspects of this project and using a DAO as the organizing entity is very aligned with the potential that I see in DAOs.
I’ve been searching for a super simple way to sign strings of text with my Ethereum wallet and share that proof with anyone online and generally the options have been terrible. I had resigned myself to having to use PGP signatures. And then I found Signatorio which does exactly what I wanted! 👏
It was great to see Aoife O’Donovan perform Bruce Springsteen’s “Nebraska” at the Turf Club tonight. 🎶
We are going to Brandi Carlile’s Mothership Weekend — gonna be great! 🎶
The ice is nearly gone on Lake Harriet, and the north shore of the lake was like a giant slushie with small chunks of ice. As the waves tossed them around they made the coolest tinkling noises, like millions of pieces of glass clinking together.
Doubled my exercise volume for the last 15 weeks. 💪
Attended a presentation of the American Service (also see American Service in Ukraine) from Aswar Rahman. What they are doing to help Ukrainians that are trying to get to America and get established is very impressive! 🇺🇦➕🇺🇸
Fun seeing The Super Mario Bros. Movie tonight! I thought the movie was a lot of fun. I enjoyed how they brought the characters to life. 🍿
