Hey Matthew, Thanks for the support! I love the coworking community for that reason.
I have actually visited the Caroline Collective in the past couple months to work for the day and I believe we may have run into each other that day? It was a while ago so I am not sure if that was you or not. Regardless, I would love to meet with you and get your perspective on what starting a space entails and any advice you could offer on how coworking in Houston has worked and not worked for you guys. We are excited but certainly need some experienced advice from any who offer :) Thanks!
