Tell us your story on how you got into technology.

I was working in public education for about 10 years. As an educator, I enjoyed helping my students learn to use technology to help them, but I also needed to learn how to use technology to help myself. Educators have very little time throughout the day to complete their tasks, whether that’s contacting parents, grading, or planning for future lessons. Learning about cloud collaboration, file sharing, automation, and the integration of tools really helped me make the most of my days. When I knew it was time for me to leave education, I wanted to make the most of my skills around curriculum and instruction, as well as my skills related to technology, which is how I started my journey into the world of tech.

Did you always know that working in technology was what you wanted to do?

No. It’s actually a world I never really pictured myself in. I always loved creative work and education and I never imagined that working in tech would fulfill those desires. But I’m lucky to have found my role in technical training that allows me to tap into my creativity to generate new content and still educate and inform others.

How long have you been with Dataprise?

I’ve been with PEI, a Dataprise company, for almost 2.5 years, and we were fortunate enough to join the Dataprise team in October of 2023.

Can you share a little bit about what it is that you do and what a typical day for you is like?

As a technical trainer, I spend a lot of time researching technical tools, how to use them, and, more importantly, how to fit them into workflows to help users work more efficiently. This research doesn’t just include reading technical documentation and watching how-to videos, but I actually have a whole training environment built out where I can play around with different tools and applications. This helps me develop the courses we offer to our clients. I also offer live training courses, where I present our content to groups of users who are learning more about the applications they have access to and how to best utilize them.

What advice would you give to women considering a career in the tech industry? What do you wish you had known?

Do not let imposter syndrome allow you to minimize your talent. Your voice is important. Your ideas are valuable. Your skills are relevant. As someone who transitioned from a female-dominated space to a more male-dominated industry, I immediately began to question my right to take up space in this industry. I don’t necessarily know if there was something I wish I knew, but I wish I had believed, more immediately, that I had a tremendous amount to offer my company and my clients. I wish I had allowed myself to operate with confidence from the beginning. I suppose I wish I had known my own worth.

Why do you think it’s important for more women to join the tech industry? How can the broader community support women in tech?

When I first started in tech, I really questioned my right to be here. I think if more women were unabashedly leading in this field, we’d all enter with a little more confidence. And there’s really no stopping a woman who believes in herself.

We need to amplify the voices of women, particularly women of color, and other marginalized groups. Give them credit when credit is due. Let them be heard and take up space. Give them the chance to lead. Trust them.

What do you think is the best part of being a woman in the tech industry?

The best part about being a woman in the industry is being able to support young women as they are starting out. Being a part of growing their confidence, skillset, and support network is incredible.  

What is it that you enjoy most about your current job at Dataprise?

I love how I get to embrace my creativity. Being a technical trainer allows me to learn so much about all these different productivity tools or features within a commonly used app. I truly enjoy the days where I basically just get to play, learn, test, and figure things out. Then I get to turn that knowledge into courses, guides, and videos that can help others learn. Whether I’m learning the ins and outs of setting up workflows in Power Automate or telling my colleagues the exciting news that we can customize our reaction emojis in Teams, I really do get a lot of enjoyment out of simply getting the chance to explore what technology can really do for us.

What is the best professional advice you’ve ever received?

“You are more than just your job.” I used to really allow my work to consume me, my personality, and my world. I had a hard time separating my life from my work, which meant when I messed up at work or failed at a task, it was easy to fall into the pattern of viewing my whole self as a failure. I love my job and the work that I do, and I consider myself lucky. But I’m also so much more than just the work I do.  Having strong boundaries doesn’t just allow me to show up better in my personal life, but I can also show up with a lot more positivity and enthusiasm in my professional life.

Where do you see yourself going from here?

I’d love to continue to grow our training program and move from just offering pre-created training courses to learning how to work more collaboratively with the users I support. It’s one thing to learn how to better utilize tools and programs, but I’d really love to find a way to work alongside my users to help them really build systems that work for them based on the knowledge they acquire from my sessions.

Tell us your story on how you got into technology.

I joined the RevelSec team back in 2022. My knowledge on anything tech/MSP related was extremely limited; however, I was able to learn and grow thanks to our amazing team and those I consider mentors.

Did you always know that working in technology was what you wanted to do?

No, I actually got my degree in Political Science and worked at multiple law firms throughout/after college. When the opportunity presented itself to make the switch, I took it and have enjoyed my career change ever since.

How long have you been with Dataprise?

For a total of two years! I have been with RevelSec since May 2022, and following RevelSec’s acquisition by Dataprise in June 2023, I have been able to call myself a Datapriser for the past year.

Can you share a little bit about what it is that you do and what a typical day for you is like?

As part of the Service Delivery team, I work with our sales reps to deliver proposals, facilitate the sales cycle post-close, and place orders for product purchasing. I also work alongside our Finance Manager on billing, monthly agreement management, and other AR-related tasks. In addition to maintaining communication with vendors, clients, sales reps, etc., my day begins and ends working out of our CRM.

What advice would you give to women considering a career in the tech industry? What do you wish you had known?

Don’t allow limiting beliefs to hinder you! We are all more capable than we give ourselves credit for. Tech is such a vast field—your own interests and personal experiences provide useful and unique skills you can apply in different areas.

Why do you think it’s important for more women to join the tech industry? How can the broader community support women in tech?

The increased normalization of women in tech allows for more innovation! I think there are so many unique experiences women can draw from to bring new solutions that cater to a broader audience of people. This is why it’s important that we do not leave women out of the conversation when it comes to their involvement in tech.

What do you think is the best part of being a woman in the tech industry?

The best part is knowing I am helping to break stereotypes by being a part of a male-dominated industry. Additionally, I am in an industry where lifelong learning is valued and rewarded!

What is it that you enjoy most about your current job at Dataprise?

Dataprise’s commitment to growth and career acceleration from within. There are multiple ways in which this company invests in its employees, from the High Potential Leadership Program (which I recently participated in) to the emphasis on training and certification.

I’m also thankful for the great team I work with in the Central Region Office, who all contribute to creating a very positive company culture.

What is the best professional advice you’ve ever received?

Don’t be afraid to ask questions! Admitting when you need guidance only gets you closer to the correct answer. This has not only boosted my confidence in professional settings but also encouraged me to be a lifelong learner, which is another valuable skill.

Where do you see yourself going from here?

Currently, I’m focusing on developing my skills and my knowledge in tech-related areas. Additionally, I would love to explore opportunities to expand my role in finance and procurement, as I believe these areas complement my skills and interests.

Tell us your story on how you got into technology.

I was looking for a change from my pediatric dental office management role. I was fortunate to have connections within Dataprise, who spoke very highly of their workplace culture. Encouraged by their recommendations, I pursued a position when the opportunity arose, ultimately securing a role within the organization.

Did you always know that working in technology was what you wanted to do?

I had never thought about it as an option. I was on a different career path. But as I learned more and its potential to shape the future, I became drawn to technology.

How long have you been with Dataprise?

 June will be my 1-year work anniversary with Dataprise.

Can you share a little bit about what it is that you do and what a typical day for you is like?

There are five of us on our Mobile Device Management, or MDM, team. Together, we help architect and design client instances within Intune/AirWatch/MaaS360. We field client requests to create new profiles, add applications, wipe devices, help end users with enrolling their devices, troubleshooting issues with email, apps, locate lost or stolen devices, and maintenance of each environment. I also help with project-based work, such as helping architect a customer’s Intune environment.

What advice would you give to women considering a career in the tech industry? What do you wish you had known?

Mentorship is key to success. Seek out individuals who are willing to offer guidance and support and be transparent about your strengths and areas of growth. Remember that the goal is to contribute to the mission, so prioritize honesty and open communication within your team. Don’t hesitate to ask questions or seek clarification – confidence comes from understanding that you’re not going to know everything all at once. Avoid the trap of comparing yourself to others, as mastery in tech is built over time through continuous learning and experience. Above all, keep the mission at the forefront of your efforts and approach each challenge with a growth mindset and determination to succeed. I wish I had understood the importance of networking and seeking out mentors earlier in my career would have been beneficial.

Why do you think it’s important for more women to join the tech industry? How can the broader community support women in tech?

It’s important for women to join the tech industry because women bring unique perspectives and solutions. Women also make up a good portion of tech users, and having more women in tech development can lead to more user-friendly designs. I think the broader community can support women in tech by providing mentorship programs, networking opportunities, and access to resources, such as scholarships and workshops.

What do you think is the best part of being a woman in the tech industry?

One of the best parts of being a woman in the tech industry is the opportunity to challenge stereotypes and inspire change. By actively participating in a field traditionally dominated by men, I’m not only breaking barriers for myself but also setting an example for my two daughters. Every achievement and milestone reached serves as a reminder to them that gender should never limit one’s aspirations or potential. I hope to instill in them the belief that they can pursue any career path they desire and succeed on their own terms, regardless of societal expectations or biases.

What is it that you enjoy most about your current job at Dataprise?

Personally, I like a challenge, and working with my MDM team has pushed me to further challenge myself. I work with very smart people and enjoy being around people who I can learn from and look up to.

What is the best professional advice you’ve ever received?

Approach constructive criticism as an opportunity for growth, recognizing that each mistake presents a valuable learning experience. When receiving that feedback on areas for improvement, interpret it as a demonstration of genuine concern and belief in your potential. Maintaining a positive mindset fosters continuous development, as we all have the capacity to enhance our skills and capabilities.   

Where do you see yourself going from here?

I see myself continuing to learn from the best, improving my MDM skills, and advancing my career within Dataprise.

Tell us your story on how you got into technology.

Tech has always been on the periphery of my previous jobs, from teaching people how to use the computer at my first job at a library to typesetting documents at a print shop. 

Did you always know that working in technology was what you wanted to do?

No, I am more of a hands-on creative type that just kept finding myself working with technology in some capacity or another.

How long have you been with Dataprise?

2 years.

Can you share a little bit about what it is that you do and what a typical day for you is like?

A lot of support work. Data pulls for internal resources, document/presentation creation and editing, working with clients. There is no typical day!

What advice would you give to women considering a career in the tech industry? What do you wish you had known?

Be confident in your worth (it’s more than you know!). Take the chance and work with what you know; you’ll be surprised where it can take you. Finding out that the skills I’ve acquired outside of the tech industry were what was needed of me was a surprise!

Why do you think it’s important for more women to join the tech industry? How can the broader community support women in tech?

I think that more diversity in tech will contribute to more creative solutions in the industry. Support will come from STEM outreach to students and continuing to address unconscious bias in the workplace.

What do you think is the best part of being a woman in the tech industry?

The community with other women in the company and the knowledge that I can create a strong network within the industry.

What is it that you enjoy most about your current job at Dataprise?

That I truly feel like I am an integral part of the workflow. Even when it is something as simple as proofreading or gathering data, I know my unique understanding of a situation is not underestimated.

What is the best professional advice you’ve ever received?

Ignore your imposter syndrome. You belong where you are for your skills, and more technical skills can always be learned!

Where do you see yourself going from here?

I see myself continuing to deepen my understanding of our clients’ unique needs and challenges. I envision continuing collaboration with internal teams and expanding my technical knowledge.
