What do you enjoy most about being in your current role?
I'm a person who really thrives on problem-solving and a little bit of novelty. A role like mine is great for someone like me because I get to work on a variety of different projects with a variety of different people, tackling a range of different problems. It's really stimulating and exciting.
It also helps me think about both the short-term and long-term aspects of business planning. This is especially amazing and interesting in the tech and education spaces, where things are evolving so quickly. Who knows what education will look like in the next five, ten, or twenty years.
Being able to use my brain in all 360 degrees is really one of the better parts of my job.
