Farewell to Cru
As one chapter closes, another one opens. But before that happens, I must say a final thank you.
Today is the day I part with my beloved Cru. Days leading up till today, I was reminded of how fortunate I was to have experienced what I was able to share; the opportunities I was handed; the situations I was exposed to; and to do it with some of the sharpest and most creative talents in the country; all with Cru Creative, Cru Group and its latest evolution, Cru Digital.
I was always questioned if I had made the right decision to leave such a vibrant team and one with such potential. Honestly, there is never a right time to leave a team like this, especially given its current acceleration of growth. But from a personal perspective, it is the right time for me. Plenty of thought was given to this decision. This decision will allow me to experience the industry from different heights and angles; discover a new city, network new friends; and further myself as an individual.
I have learned life is much more than just about work. I have also learned what I call “work” is also what I call “my hobby” and I’m addicted to the perks and glory surrounding it. I really love what I do, and I am happy for it to be a strong part of my lifestyle. I think I’m getting closer to finding that balance of work verses life that I am satisfied with, but in a way that it amplifies each other.
Cru has been a catalyst for my success and will be for anyone who is part of it. Embracing that Cru culture has shot me to the peak of my game in 3 short years. I am a by product of Cru’s success and as Ben has told me, in the same token, I have been played an integral part of Cru’s success. I will always remember these days and be thankful for it.
Guys, you’ve been great colleagues and greater friends. Thank you!
