How long have you been at Lionbridge?

What does a typical work day look like for you?

No day is typical. People are coming to me with all kinds of asks, problems, or just to have a chat.

What is your favorite place in your office?

I love to work at my desk, which provides me with enough organized chaos and stimuli to make my workspace so much more personal and customized. There are two color-changing elephants, a Coca-Cola Christmas truck, a dinosaur crayon, a 10-sided dice, an R2D2 mug, some books (acting as monitor elevation), and a metal band poster.

What is the best part of your job?

When the solutions just work, when people understand, when challenges become experience.

Cutting-edge technologies and electronics make me roar.
