Alex’s Answer

Hi Ethan! My passion for technology drew me to the IT industry. I really enjoy working with cross-functional teams to build technology solutions that solve complex business problems and customer pain points. It is amazing how much technology has transformed companies and entire industries. It is a very exciting field with broad applications. The role of an IT Manager is also heavily tied to helping others -- whether that is ensuring proper technologies are in place to help people collaborate and do their job effectively, or protecting private information from hackers. It is a rewarding job.
