Steven Watkins

Marketing Automation Specialist

“I am thankful for remote work because it allows me to entirely enjoy the life I work hard to earn and grow instead of spending it on the road, where life is much more dangerous, or in the same building everyday. Too many folks work hard for a home and life they barely live in or enjoy.”

— Steven Watkins, Email Marketing Analyst
