Passion SummaryI am driven by passion within the technology industry. This passion is what wakes me up to an early start in my day to make revi -sions to the plans prepped in advance. Meeting people and keeping fresh ideas constantly in motion is what makes day-to-day op -erations exciting and renewing. Work takes up a good portion of one’s life, and therefore, I see it as an opportunity worth seizing everyday for both the company and my personal growth. It is of utter importance to me that work has purpose as I reflect where I have been and where I am going.
