Julie Craig

Inside Sales Rep, Dell Endpoint Security


CYBERSECURITY

After graduating from Texas A&M University with an English degree, I applied for a job as a Inside Sales Rep at Dell because that's where my roommate applied. 5 years later, I am a Data Security Specialist, living in Fort Worth, TX with my husband and our pets. Sometimes it feels like I got lucky and just fell into a job that I love, but when I am honest with myself, it took a lot more than luck. It took understanding my strengths and passions and a belief that the value I add as an employee was not limited by my degree.
