I have been working with PSCI since October 2018 at DTI (Department
of Technology & Information) as a Software Security
Engineer.

Any outdoor activity, usually a hike on Sunday morning and tennis
in the evening.

you?
I'm a state level classical dancer.
4.If you could go anywhere in the world on vacation, where

Many places on my bucket list but I
would love to go to Paris! My favorite and dream place to
visit.
5. What separates PSCI from
other consulting firms you've worked
with?
PSCI stands apart from other consulting
firms as they care about the client and deliver excellence, and
they are always there when needed.
In case you missed them, check out
these recent top reads from publications across the
industry.
And be sure to connect with PSCI on
LinkedIn,
Facebook, and
Twitter to stay in-the-know about the latest trends and

It is
with a heavy heart that we share the news of the passing of
our dear friend and colleague, Jack Hovis. Jack has been a
part of the PSCI family for the entire 27 years we have been in
business, mostly as our client at Sunoco and PES, and for the last
year as an employee and consultant at Wawa. The first consultant to
work for PSCI was assigned to a contract in Jack's group. And many
more followed.
More than a professional colleague, Jack was a friend who became a
part of our family.
Whether it was an Anniversary dinner for one of our employees, a
Thanksgiving lunch, or a Holiday party, we could always count on
Jack to brighten the room.
We will miss Jack's amazing intelligence and technical skills, his
witty sense of humor, ease of laughter, and how he helped shape the
success and culture of PSCI. Rest in Peace old friend.
