Bryan's Bio Picture

My name's Bryan Marble. I'm a developer at HubSpot and an aspiring entrepreneur from the greater Boston area. I love talking startups, web usability and web apps in general and I'm always looking for new people to geek out with.

My latest project is GroupTrip, a group travel planning site that helps friends coordinate travel research and track expenses so that they can focus on the experience of the trip and not the logistics of traveling in groups. Check out the site, sign up for the e-mail list, and let me know if you have any feedback!
