We are thrilled to recognize Ted Siems as one of our February Associate Spotlights.
The comings and goings of staff are a part of every dynamic organization; therefore, it can be challenging to get to know our coworkers better as people. We have to be mindful that our company culture thrives on our exceptional people and their outstanding technical skills. As such, we are finding that our periodic interviews with associates allow us to acknowledge and celebrate the beautiful life stories, extraordinary professional accomplishments, and even the little quirks that make us uniquely beautiful human beings.
We hope you find each Edafio associate story as inspiring as we do in gathering and sharing them.

If you could meet anyone in the world, dead or alive, who would it be and why?
I think that Nikola Tesla would be fascinating to have a conversation with. I want to pick his brain about several topics.
Everyone at Edafio has a story about why they joined the team. What’s yours?
I had been with Coleman Tech for approximately six months when Edafio acquired them. It was a time of significant change in my life, but joining Edafio was one of the great changes.
