Linedata is a place where a person with strong motivation, excellent self management and a willingness to 'get dirty' will be rewarded. You can never give your whole life to work and at Linedata, I strive to maintain a healthy balance of work and life for my team and for myself. With project work, there will be times where we have to push hard and deliver extra efforts, but having strong communication and having fun must be part of it. Life happens outside of work and we cannot neglect it.

What do you live about your job and the company?
Working at Linedata has been challenging which is something I enjoy. I'm not from the financial services industry and as a provider of services, I have expanded my knowledge to all areas of the trading and portfolio management workflows and gained understanding of the variety of assets that our clients manage. Working on projects offer me a clear beginning and end so that with each new projects, there are different groups of people I work with and different challenges. The essence of teamwork is very important at Linedata and being in a large company, but still feeling small enough to be known is something that is beneficial to being a Linedata employee. The office is a very collaborative environment.
Greatest achievements
I believe in developing new talent and making sure that we have diversity in the make-up of Linedata's environment. As part of senior leadership, we have a responsibility of creating the environment that our employees work in and I work closely with HR to make this true at Linedata. In addition, working hard is only part of the equation as we also need to have good relationships within the organization. I never take credit for the work of others and as a manager, it is my responsibility to make sure that the work of my team is recognized.

Nobody likes doing dishes, I certainly don't, but you're never too important to do them. Take this idea and expand it to your career, personal life, and the world around you. This simple phrase reminds us that nothing is below us. This mindset will take you a whole lot further than believing you're above certain things. Whether in your career or your life, you'll come across some things you don't want to do, but it's the people who take those things on with a positive attitude who come out on top. You're never too important to wash the dishes.
