Office Evolution Boulder transition

As the Office Evolution Boulder Pearl expansion nears its opening date of October 1, and the Boulder Walnut location comes to a close, there will be a slight change in conference room availability during the transition:

* If you need Boulder conference room space Oct 1-3, when Office Evolution Boulder conference rooms are closed, you can book space at OE rates at Broadway Suites, a partner of Office Evolution, located on Broadway and Pearl St. Reservations can be made by calling the Office Evolution main line, 303.417.6300. Please call as soon as possible for availability.

Crystal Hendry

Crystal Hendry, has been with OE since May 2009 as Location Manager at both the Boulder Walnut and Boulder Pearl locations. 

“I enjoy the relationships I've cultivated with OE clients over the last year and I like that every day is different!”

Crystal has most recently been involved in the large task of ensuring a smooth transition for those Boulder Walnut tenants moving to the expanded Boulder Pearl space October 1, as well as helping coordinate the construction of the newly expanded space.

Here are a few fascinating facts about Crystal:

• She has lived in 6 states: South Dakota, Minnesota, New Jersey, California, North Carolina and Colorado. She thinks Colorado is her last stop as she loves the weather and people
• She has three children and one stepdaughter: Jake is 10, Molly is 8, Samantha is 5 and Olivia is 7.
• Three of her greatest passions in life are family, the pursuit of delicious food and reading
• Two of her biggest pet peeves are texting shortcuts (such as ‘thx’ instead of ‘thanks’, and ‘u’ instead of ‘you’) & lipstick on clean coffee cups
• Her dream car is a AMC Gremlin, just like the one she drove in high school
• Her favorite childhood toy was Lite Brite

The next time you are in the Boulder Pearl office, be sure to say “hello” to Crystal. She’d be happy to give you a tour of the newly expanded space after October 1!
