Noah joined AT as an intern in February 2018 while still in college at Aurora University where he graduated with a degree in computer science and a minor in math. He worked throughout school and due to that and some great scholarships he was able to graduate debt free. He discovered AT thru Bryan (they went to the same church) who overheard Noah talking about working with computers. Noah started as an intern but converted to full time during his last semester at college and has been happily enjoying life at AT ever since. His favorite part of AT is the people; "the work environment is like no other" and he actually looks forward to going to work. Outside of work, he plays games (video, card and board), plays sports (basketball, soccer, baseball, ultimate frisbee), likes anything competitive and enjoys cooking and eating. Noah lives in Aurora with his family and his cat Yuumi. He is the second oldest of 5 boys and his brothers Andrew, Elliot, Simon and Justus range in age from 16 to 30. Since high school, Noah has been volunteering at Hacienda El Refugio, a nature and outdoor adventure camp in Ecuador. His brother is now working there full time and Noah actively keeps in touch with people working at the program and will be going there again in a few weeks.
And now a few questions to get to know a little more about Noah:
Three fun facts about Noah:
- In high school Noah took a trip with his dad and drove Route 66 from Las Vegas back to Aurora, stopping at restaurants from Diners, Drive Ins and Dives along the way.
- His football number is 64 because that was the channel for the Food Network.
- He is fluent in Spanish which comes in handy on his trips to Ecuador
If he wasn't working at AT he would be: His dream job would be to own his own coffee shop where he would be the barista and cook and serve food while talking with the customers. He thinks it would be fun to be able to meet and interact with many different types of people.
Favorite Movie: Gladiator or Cars
Favorite TV Show: Regular show
Favorite vacations: Now that Noah and his 4 brothers are older they are taking vacations together. Their last trip was to Glacier National Park in Montana. He also looks forward to yearly fishing trips with his extended family to the boundary waters in Ely, Minnesota.

| High Road Solutions - The good, the bad, the ugly - everything you need to know about API’s |
Location:Virtual
While an API simplifies programming, it's a complicated software component that can connect multiple systems together. It's complexity is rooted in defining the kinds of calls made, how they should be requested, data formats to use, as well as programming convention to follow. Since so much of the API itself is defined and self contained, how do you actually evaluate its quality or level of sophistication and determine if it's the right fit for your technical plan? Join us as we discuss qualities and features to look for and programming "gotchas" to consider so you don’t end up with a lemon. |
