Much like our products; each member of our Aysling team has a unique feature or features that distinguishes themselves from everyone else. Today’s Aysling Team Spotlight is no different. Our early riser, video game guru, and genuinely one of the nicest people at our office is none other than our Software Engineer, Dan Thurston.
Now we’re not saying everyone at the office isn’t nice (we try to be); however, Dan is generally walking around assisting others, making coffee, fixing technical issues, and generally offering support whenever and wherever he can. So today, join us as we learn more about one of our Software Developers based out of Ann Arbor, MI.
