<p><strong>CHRIS ARMISTEAD:&#160;</strong> It&#39;s going well, thanks.&#160; Just getting into the swing of things here.</p>
<p><strong>MORGAN:</strong> Tell me, what exactly is a Product Coordinator anyway?</p>
<p><strong>CHRIS:&#160;</strong> Well, it&#39;s going to mean a little of everything.&#160; Basically working with our marketing team, engineering team, as well as our clients to make sure Cascade Server is the best CMS product available.</p>
<p><strong>MORGAN:</strong> How did you get into doing something like this?</p>
<p><strong>CHRIS:&#160;</strong> It definitely wasn&#39;t a straight line.&#160; I graduated from the University of Georgia with a journalism degree in Telecommunication Arts.&#160; Initially, I worked installing data lines, then as an independent courier in Atlanta, after that as a project coordinator for a huge law firm downtown, and my last job was as a prospector and email communications writer for an online B2B tech directory.&#160; This is the first job I&#39;ve ever had that actually made sense following the job before it.&#160; I discovered my passion for emerging media and it led me here.</p>
<p><strong>MORGAN:</strong>&#160; Wow, so what has been your impression of Hannon Hill so far?</p>
<p><strong>CHRIS:&#160;</strong> It&#39;s a very dynamic environment.&#160; As you can see, I don&#39;t mind change.&#160; In fact, I can&#39;t stand being in a rut and I love working in a place where no two days are the same, and everyone works hard without having to punch a clock.</p>
<p><strong>MORGAN:</strong> What has been the biggest change since your last position?</p>
<p><strong>CHRIS:&#160;</strong> The surroundings!&#160; I love the asymmetrical layout of this space, the bright colors and unique shapes of the rooms and offices.&#160; My last office was a cubicle farm in a large rectangular room.&#160; In my opinion, less predictable surroundings help foster less predictable ideas.</p>
<p><strong>MORGAN:</strong> Sounds like you&#39;re excited to be here.</p>
<p><strong>CHRIS:&#160;</strong> Definitely excited.&#160; I have worked in the suburbs and worked in the very urban surroundings of downtown, but this is my first time working in Buckhead so I am enthused for the new experience.</p>
<p><strong>MORGAN:</strong> How does this area stack up so far?</p>
<p><strong>CHRIS:&#160;</strong> Well this area is where I live and really where I consider home.&#160; I enjoyed working downtown, but this is much easier to navigate.&#160; Plus the office has a spectacular view of the skyline so it&#39;s not like you feel that far from the city.&#160; As for the suburbs, if I never go back there, I won&#39;t shed a tear.</p>
<p><strong>MORGAN:</strong> So what&#39;s one thing your coworkers don&#39;t know about you yet?</p>
<p><strong>CHRIS:&#160;</strong> We have a ping pong table here and I haven&#39;t had the opportunity to play yet, but I am really dominant at ping pong.&#160; I feel a little bad saying this since I don&#39;t how good anyone else is here, but it&#39;s a pretty safe bet I will destroy them regardless of how good they think they are.</p>
<p><strong>MORGAN:</strong> That sounds like an open challenge to all Hannon Hillians.&#160; Thanks for stopping by, Chris, and thanks to everybody out there for checking out this edition of Meet the Team at Hannon Hill.&#160; See you next time.</p></body-content><graphic><path>/</path></graphic><podcast><content/><path>/internet/files/podcasts/2008/70_meet_the_team_ca.mp3</path><name>70_meet_the_team_ca.mp3</name><display-name>Meet the Team - Chris Armistead</display-name><title>Meet the Team - Chris Armistead</title><keywords>hannon hill, content management, cascade server, meet the team, chris armistead</keywords><author>Morgan Griffith</author></podcast><related-page><path>/</path></related-page><category>News</category></system-data-structure>
