My time at Maui Jim has been full of learning experiences. Working within a team and underneath a highly-skilled manager, I am able to learn how to best work with others and keep team members motivated in their day-to-day responsibilities. Through Maui Jim, I have learned about the workflow of a small team tasked with keeping an entire site up-to-date. More importantly, I am learning what it takes to keep employees intrinsically motivated and happy with their work. Maui Jim has also made me familiar with ticket tracking software such as Jira.
