Mary Beth Rogers Ada's Advice:  Just hang in there when you feel like quitting and don't be afraid to ask for help! That's what the professors are there for. Many of the guys that I went to school with would rarely go ask if they didn't quite understand something.

Q: How did you choose your major(s)?

A: Computers were the only thing that even half-way interested me in high school so I thought I would try out that major first and it seemed to fit me pretty good!

Q: What aspects of your college program(s) did you like?

A: I liked the programming classes and the database classes.

Q: What aspects of your job do you enjoy most?

A: I get to work out of my house full time so I have plenty of time to do things around the house while I am taking my "breaks" throughout the day. I also like the fact that if my children get sick and have to stay home from daycare, I don't have to worry about taking off of work. I can still get stuff done even if I have to work at night to finish a project after the kids go to sleep.

Q: What aspects of your job don't you enjoy?

A: I pretty much love my job. I haven't found anything that I don't enjoy yet. I have to travel once every 6 weeks or so and I miss my family then but it's usually just an overnight trip so my children only have to miss me for one night.

Q: Is there anything you would like to tell us that we didn't ask?

A: I've worked with this company for about a year and a half (2 years next Oct).
