Very few people, a very select, handpicked few, create legacy at a young age. Andrea, you are that person.

We always joked that my life changed since the day we met and decided to live together at that little wooden house on Bank Street in Cambridge, Massachusetts, the house that has probably never seen so much activity before or after that year of 2007-2008. We always wondered how it is still standing. We joked, but it turned out that you Andrea indeed changed not only my life, but also the lives of everyone who was lucky to meet you on their path.

The people around you weren’t short on confidence or success – academically you have been in most competitive schools, and professionally you’ve excelled in the toughest teams at the toughest companies in the world. But even among this crowd you stood out, a head high above everyone else. What made you special was your special way, being true to yourself, following your ideas and making them reality. The success of Zero-Gravity, started with your small savings and built with your own hands, literally, is a living testament to this.

The Andrea Poffe way has always been the most authentic way.

Your determination inspired me, us, everyone. You are the example of most ultimate authenticity. One that is a rare quality to have on this planet, when it is so much easier to follow a well-trodden path, which is what everyone else pretty much does. Not you. You created your own path.

In the moment of hesitation, I think of your originality Andrea, and, as a lighthouse, you guide me, reminding that the real way to live is to be true to yourself, to be King, as you always said.

Andrea Poffe, the inspiration you gave us is now an eternal light that lives inside of our hearts. The legacy you left behind means you will remain with us forever.

God bless your beautiful soul, my dear friend.
