We are thrilled to pay tribute to Joseph Lindquist our January Associate Spotlight and Senior Systems Engineer. He brings immense knowledge and experience to our growing and highly skilled team of specialists.
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, especially in a time of social distancing. We have to be mindful that our company culture thrives on our exceptional people as much as 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 is as inspiring as we do in gathering and sharing them.

With the onset of covid, I believe, like many people, I started reassessing work-life balance, my career and many other areas of my life that are important to me.
After a 15 year stint with the U of A Athletic Department and talking to my friend and now co-worker, Austin Bailey, I was motivated to make the change. The company had matured, and there was a significant opportunity for growth than when I first applied five years ago.
