Our Employee Spotlight Series highlights employees from around the world to showcases the awesome talent and personality that makes up Aras. Next up: Anne! Read on to get to know more about her.
Where did you grow up?
Columbus, OH
What was your first or strangest job?
My first job was as a lifeguard - unfortunately I'll never be that tan again
What do you like most about your current job?
We're always working on something new! Whether it is a new platform, a different way to integrate data or a new report to help track progress to goals, we're always pushing ourselves to learn a better way to push the company forward.
What is your greatest accomplishment, work or personal?
Probably making the move from Ohio to New Hampshire! It was definitely outside of my comfort zone to be so far from home and to not know anyone up here, but it's proven to be an great decision.
Tell us a fun fact about you.
I'm a huge Harry Potter fan. I've read each book 6 or 7 times.
Pick three words to describe yourself.
Curious, Adventurous, Social
What is one thing on your bucket list?
Skydiving! I'm afraid of heights though so someone may truly have to force me out of the plane
Do you have any hobbies outside of work?
Anything outside - hiking, camping, kayaking, swimming, going to the beach, etc. I also love to read, which I'll do cuddled on my couch on rainy days or on a blanket in the park when it's nice.
You’re about to perform in a karaoke bar. What song do you pick?
I've always wanted to get up there and do "Tequila" by The Champs. You just yell "Tequila!" every 30-45 seconds (essential because I can't sing) and with the right crowd, I think it would be really fun.
