1. Describe your job at Trapp Technology.
Well, I get to work every morning early for the fun elevator ride which takes me up into the clouds. Once I’m up there I get to work, resolving escalated tickets, conducting email migrations, creating training materials, training new hires and drinking lots of Green Tea.

Easy, I tell them I work in the cloud and then I expand a little bit in regards to what SaaS and IaaS are.

3. As a child, what did you want to be when you grew up?
Originally, I wanted to fly in the Air Force. One I got my hands on my first computer at the age of 10, I knew I would be working with computers for the rest of my life.

4. If you could trade places with any famous person, living or dead, who would it be and why?
Orville or Wilbur Wright because I think it would have been awesome to be the first person to have successfully flown an airplane.

The last one I read is Routing and Switching by Wendell Odom.

I love watching two tennis players battle it out.
