This month, we’re excited to spotlight Colby Leary, whose people-first approach, adaptability, and commitment to supporting clients and teammates truly embody the spirit of Extropy.
Colby spent 10 years working in healthcare and direct patient care before making the transition into technology and project management. While the industries are very different, his focus has remained the same: taking care of people, building trust, and making sure others feel supported. He discovered Extropy through a former colleague, opening the door to an entirely new career path.
Since joining Extropy, Colby has embraced the client-facing side of his role. His approachable style helps clients and teammates feel comfortable, and he takes pride in making collaboration and communication easier.
One project he’s especially proud of was the Dexcom implementation. Seeing the team adapt and come together to get the project across the finish line was a powerful reminder of the impact of teamwork.
Michael Jasper shared:
“At Extropy, excellence means showing up, raising the bar, and lifting the team with you. Colby does all three and then some, and I’m proud to have him on our team!”
Colby describes Extropy’s culture as highly collaborative, where teammates and leadership are always willing to make time to help one another. He’s also continuing to expand his technical skills, learning more about Basware’s backend and using SQL to support client needs.
Outside of work, Colby has been singing since childhood, from show choir and college a cappella to his current tradition of weekly karaoke.
For anyone new to Extropy, Colby’s advice is simple: lean on your team, don’t be afraid to reach out, and take advantage of how much there is to learn from the people around you.
Colby, thank you for your people-first mindset, collaboration, and the excellence you bring to Extropy every day. We’re grateful to have you on the team.
