In 2007, I graduated with a Computer Science degree from Morehouse College and was anxious to start my career. There was only one problem: the computer science field is so vast that I didn't know exactly which area I wanted to pursue. That's where GEICO came into the picture. I saw an opportunity with the Emerging Leaders Program to rotate throughout the company, work with different technologies and projects, as well as gain a better understanding of business operations.
Since joining GEICO, I've rotated through five different teams and worked on more than 20 different projects to gain experience in infrastructure, enterprise application development, database systems, business process management and more. My experiences have not only been limited to various technologies, as I have also been engaged in corporate initiatives, community involvement and team leadership. I must say, my favorite aspects of GEICO are the opportunities for professional development, the involvement in the community and the proven stability of the company.
Every single day offers a new challenge and a new opportunity for growth. I plan to continue to develop my leadership, technical and business knowledge, and eventually move into an executive management position. With all of the professional development opportunities and my great mentors, I am excited about this journey called a career!
