get::ting answers: an interview with Jerry Sen

posted by Design

Graphic Designer Connie Baltitas interviews Web Developer Jerry Sen in our new get::ting answers to learn about his typical day, his tips on updating your site and more.

Connie: So Jerry, you're a developer at thunder::tech—can you explain a little bit about what your day-to-day life is like around here?
Jerry: Well my day begins around 8:55 a.m. After catching my breath from running up the stairs, I boot up my laptop and shuffle to the kitchen to get my daily caffeine fix.

I spend most of my day writing code, providing tech support and writing chat::ter posts. With all of that going on, I try hard to keep all of my projects straight and meet deadlines.

Developer Jerry shows Connie, a graphic designer, a thing or two about golfing.

C: What is your favorite part about being a developer and what’s your favorite type of project?
J: I would have to say that my favorite thing about being a developer is that I get to do what I love. It was a hobby long before I ever considered it to be my career, which makes coming to work every day easy.

My favorite type of project would be anything that requires me to learn something new. I love new challenges.

C: What is your advice for anyone out there who is thinking about updating their site? What are important things to consider?
J: Don’t do it! Just kidding. I would suggest not trying to create the end-all, be-all website. Over thinking your site can be just as detrimental as under thinking it. Look for a happy medium that functions and represents your brand.

C: I hear you're a pretty good golfer. How would you relate successfully marketing a company to having a really good golf game?
J: To be a really good golfer you must have all parts of your “game” working in sync. If you’re hitting the ball 300 yards straight down the fairway but then shank the next three shots out of bounds, then you will never score well. Your long game must match your short game. The same holds true for marketing your company. Everything must work together.
