While Avea Solutions is no longer a billing company, we still maintain a core team to both assist some of our older clients and to stay on top of industry trends. Sara is an incredibly valuable member of this R & D team. Take it away, Sara!
What are you most passionate about professionally? Personally?
Professionally, I'm most passionate about learning new skills. On a personal level, my greatest passions are aviation and cute raccoon videos.
What would you do even if you didn’t get paid to do it?
There's only one thing I would do without pay, and that is fly. Pay or not, as long as I was in the air, I would be happy.
What are you surprisingly good at (work or personal)?
I am surprisingly good at arguing the case for why my boyfriend should be the one to make dinner and I should never cook.
Over the last several weeks, the thoughts of the entire Avea family have been with our Texas and Florida-based clients and vendors affected by the devastation caused by Hurricane Harvey and Hurricane Irma. Many of our partners in these states were forced to evacuate their offices and homes, and have only just begun to assess the damage resulting from the storms.
Avea Solutions is proud to host a three-part Introduction to Machine Learning series, organized by Portland Women In Technology (PDXWIT).
What are you most passionate about professionally? Personally?
Professionally and personally speaking, I like to emphasize the importance of communication. In my relationships outside of work, I’ve learned that there is no conflict that a good conversation can’t solve, so I try to bring that mindset with me into the professional world.
What would you do even if you didn’t get paid to do it?
I’m a huge believer in helping people with their worries and woes. If someone is feeling concerned or conflicted, I’d like to help alleviate their stress and help them to see their problems from different perspectives.
