This summer the Marketing Department has the pleasure of working with Angie, who&#8217;s helping us dig through data and also making some graphics for us in her spare time! Learn a bit more about Angie below!<\/p>\n<p><strong>What is your Backblaze Title?<\/strong><br \/>\nMarketing Intern.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Where are you originally from? <\/strong><br \/>\nI was actually born in China, but I moved to Utah with my parents when I was a baby. Afterwards, I lived in Colorado and Texas for a little bit before coming to California (my favorite state so far lol). This summer should mark my sixth year living here!<\/p>\n<p><strong>What attracted you to Backblaze?<\/strong><br \/>\nMy mom has been working at Backblaze for quite some time and she told me that there might be interning opportunities during the summer. For the past few years, I\u2019ve been interested in business so I wanted to see if I could gain some knowledge about marketing and the tech industry. I also didn\u2019t want to spend my entire summer studying for the ACT and SAT haha.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What do you expect to learn while being at Backblaze?<\/strong><br \/>\nI hope to learn more about various marketing techniques and technology in general.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Where else have you worked?<\/strong><br \/>\nThis is actually my first job! It\u2019s much better than working at In N Out (what I originally had in mind).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Where did you go to school?<\/strong><br \/>\nI currently attend Mountain View High School and will be a junior in the fall.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What\u2019s your dream job? <\/strong><br \/>\nMy interests and strengths are pretty spread so I don\u2019t have anything specific in mind. But I\u2019ll enjoy any job that gives me ample room to be creative and to have fun.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Favorite place you\u2019ve traveled? <\/strong><br \/>\nTaiwan. The humidity and heat are horrendously hard to adjust to and I\u2019m a walking buffet for mosquitos, but the street food and cheap milk tea collectively make up for it.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Favorite hobby?<\/strong><br \/>\nProbably drawing and painting, despite school sucking up most of my time and energy.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Of what achievement are you most proud?<\/strong><br \/>\nFor the past four summers, I\u2019ve competed in a graphic novel making contest held by the San Jose Library and I\u2019ve managed to place 1st in my respective category three times.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Star Trek or Star Wars?<\/strong><br \/>\nYikes I haven\u2019t watched either but I\u2019ll say Star Wars. One day I\u2019ll get around to catching up.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Coke or Pepsi?<\/strong><br \/>\nI lean more towards Coke.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Favorite food?<\/strong><br \/>\nI\u2019m slightly lactose intolerant but that doesn\u2019t stop me from eating any and all dairy products.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Why do you like certain things? <\/strong><br \/>\nDopamine and serotonin.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Anything else you\u2019d like you\u2019d like to tell us?<\/strong><br \/>\nI really, really like dogs and will not hesitate to hug and pet one if given the opportunity.<\/p>\n<p>Luckily for Angie we have a plethora of dogs in the office, they are more than happy to get all of the hugs!
