Wake Forest University Employee

"Currently I'm working remotely for this employer, but just prior to my remote experience, I was actually on-site and working for them. I found that this position was really amazing in respect to the above-my-qualifications responsibilities given to me, but they were unable to provide adequate resources and technology (I have to work remotely from a $200 hp laptop) that could have helped me perform even better."
