I have a passion for technology and an insatiable appetite to learn new things, which makes working in IT more of a hobby than a job! Working as an IT Architect at a life sciences company allows me to pursue my passion for learning new technologies while also working to help scientists solve their IT struggles. Along the way, I often encounter problems that I view as an opportunity to fix something rather than a roadblock or hindrance in accomplishing something. All of this allows me to be creative and imaginative while solving everyday issues and providing an IT service to my peers and customers!
