EMPLOYEE SPOTLIGHT BY JILL JACKSON

Justin Frieze

I interviewed Justin Frieze over Team video chat for this month’s Spotlight! Justin’s home office is in his garage so that he can get some work done without participation from his 2 children and 4 cats! Justin was very deliberate in pointing out that they are very much his wife’s cats! He likes the cats but is more of a dog person.

Corey Pottratz

Let’s spotlight the one and only Corey Pottratz! Corey joined Anchor in November of 2013 as a Service Desk Engineer and moved into the vCIO position in 2015. He tells me he has primarily worked in small companies where he did a little bit of everything and discovered what he enjoyed the most was IT. He had been in a customer service role and wanted to find a job that embraced both and then he found Anchor! Corey likes working for Anchor because everyone has the same type of customer service mindset when it comes to meeting the needs of our clients.

I’m sure many of you know Patrick Kiah by now as he started with Anchor back in February of 2014 as a Network Administrator. Pat likes working at Anchor because of the sense of family and says the overall culture is very warm. He went on to say, “I get to work on geeky things while making an impact on a client’s day and I like to make them happy!”.

When he’s not being an awesome team member at work he enjoys playing Center for his Ice Hockey team.
