Kathy Szczesny

The work PSCI consultants are able to accomplish helps not only us but more importantly our clients persevere and prosper. That's why we like to focus on them. This month, we shine the spotlight on one of our latest hires, Kathy Szczesny! Kathy is a Front-End/WordPress Developer currently on contract with the Delaware Government Information Center.

Let's take a moment to learn more about her in this month's Fast Five.

1. What was your first paying job?

My first paying job was as a Dishwasher/Bus Girl at Eli Family Restaurant in Ohio.

2. Favorite weekend hobby?

Adding to my family tree on ancestry.com.

3. What was your favorite TV show when growing up?

My favorite TV show when growing up was Eight is Enough.

4. If you could go anywhere in the world on vacation, where would you go?

5. What separates PSCI from other consulting firms you've worked with?

Trust. I've declined to work with other consulting firms because they treated me like a commodity and not a human being. PSCI from the beginning established a foundation of trust which made me feel confident that I was joining a team of professionals who cared and who had my best interest at heart.

We'll be sure to pass along additional information as these events get closer.
