10 Times Dad Was A Genius In Calvin And Hobbes

Hey y’all,

Hope everyone’s enjoying June and the full blown start of the summer (and good luck to any of you trying to dodge June Gloom + end of quarter expense filing). Hats off to those of you who organized events during the Tech Weeks in San Francisco and Los Angeles - loved seeing the community come together!

Read on for our June edition. Best wishes to all the dads out there celebrating Father’s Day this weekend.

Thanks,

Shawn and the NextGen Board
