    I enjoyed working with Digdata as I felt like it was a good opportunity to share my journey in my career in Data so far. I have had a unique approach in that I have had several jobs since graduation, slowly moving up the Data world and learning more as I move forward. I think that it is important for people to understand that finding the perfect job is not always a straight and narrow path. Knowing that people were able to listen to me talk about that but also ask questions about my experiences felt really good and I feel like if I was involved in something similar at a younger age it would have helped a lot.
