Hewitt Associates

Lincolnshire, IL

My time at Hewitt was short and rocky. I was young, immature, and arrogant. That being said, I was a horrible match for the job because it was administrative in nature and involved little to no problem solving. The biggest benefit of the position (besides meeting my wife!) was my first exposure to relational databases. I quickly picked up the tools, and database technologies remain one of my professional interests to this day.
