How long have you worked at BDS?
I’ve been at BDS for almost two years. I came on board from Copilabs when BDS acquired it in December 2023.
Three words/phrases to describe your role
Engaging, Challenging, and Dynamic
My background is with a small company, so I’m enjoying the atmosphere because it’s a very busy and dynamic environment. I thought working remotely would be difficult, but find that the way everyone interacts and works together has made it really easy to become a part of the team.
Can you tell us more about your role, and what you like most about it?
My role as Contract Manager at BDS allows me to work closely with the sales, billing, and service team. We work really well together. I also get a lot of 1:1 contact with the customers, answer questions regarding their coverage and contracts, and find ways to make it work mutually well for our customers and BDS.
What is something that most people at BDS do not know about you?
I love to cook. I’m a little bit of a foodie. I like to try new recipes and styles of cooking. I could spend all day looking through cookbooks, shopping for cooking gadgets, and especially for entertainment. Having my family over and hosting them for the holidays is something I really enjoy.
How would you describe your personality?
I’m very curious and fun loving. Because of that I love to travel, see new places, and explore.
Where is your happy place?
My happy place is anywhere near the ocean. We live in Hampton, New Hampshire, so we get to take walks on the beach often and take the boat out and explore up and down the New Hampshire sea coast.
What is your motto or personal mantra?
“Plan for the future but live for today. Make sure you are present and enjoy the moment you are in.”
What do you like best about BDS?
I like the dynamic nature of the company. BDS is always growing and changing. In that way, I’m able to grow and change in my role as well and learn a lot from everybody every dat.
