Last week, we introduced our new “Work & Play Wednesday'' blog series, profiling different Qualifi employees each week and explaining what makes them unique. Make sure you check out last week’s profile of software engineer Jessica Bushong on the blog here.
This week, we want to introduce you to Jayda Hamilton, one of our Product Experts! Jayda is based in the Miami area, a graduate of Florida International University, and has been with Qualifi for just over one year. In that short time, she has already proven herself to be invaluable to our team, and of course to our customers.
What’s the best part about working here at Qualifi?
My favorite part about working at Qualifi is having the chance to collaborate across multiple teams - there’s always an opportunity to work with new people and learn new things! If I could switch roles with anyone on the team for a day, it would be Rylie Gray, our marketing specialist - I find it super interesting how she turns current trends into something that we can use on our social channels.
Currently, I’m working on improving my coding skills, and there are a lot of internal resources that can help me achieve my goals.
And of course, our leaders are great at coming up with new team-building activities, like axe-throwing or any game that Devyn makes up!
What are your favorite tips and tricks for how to be productive, or how to unwind?
My go-to productivity hack is putting my headphones on and talking a walk on my walking pad - it’s a great way to really zone in on whatever I’m working on.
After work, I like to unwind by reading a book - I swear by the Harry Potter series - or by watching and playing soccer.
What else should we know about you?
I grew up just 30 minutes away from the beach, so I’ve always loved the ocean.
Oh, and I used to have a pet turtle that could dance!
