Advisory Solutions Consultant, SailPoint Technologies
“As a young and foolish student, I was critical of Tabor’s emphasis on liberal arts theory instead of specific technologies. A few years after graduation, I apologized to my instructor and told him to never listen to a fool like me. The liberal arts focus gave me a huge advantage over my industry peers. Tabor taught more than technology, they taught me how to learn, understand, and communicate it. In an ever-changing world, I have the Tabor advantage and I use it every day.”
