Here at our remote Team Awesome headquarters we’re taking time to think about the people who make us so great. You’re already familiar with their hard-working, tech-supporting, can-do attitudes. Now we pull the curtain back a little bit further so that you can get to know them better. Today, we’re featuring second-year student Sophie Popovich. After she graduates in the spring, she’s hoping to do community engagement and outreach in a public library.
