WHO’S WHO

10 Questions... With Juan Moran - I.T. Support Analyst

my attitude and productivity.

How long have you been with KSS? I’ve been with KSS at THQ for seven months now. What is your role at THQ? My role here is primarily to help all our Team Members with their I.T. systems, everything from development to mainte- nance and support. In terms of the nuts and bolts of my role with KSS, it involves lots of problem solving, system maintenance and administration. I’ve always enjoyed puzzles and the idea of using technology to help people to achieve their personal goals is very satisfying. Tell us about the I.T. Team you work with? We are a really strong Team that is always happy to help each other. I greatly admire their support and desire for growth as I.T. professionals. What do you enjoy most about your role? I enjoy the sincere appreciation I receive from the Team Members. A heartfelt “thanks” goes a long way to improving

Have you always been in this line of work? Yes, I’ve had the privilege of working with Technology for more than 12 years. During this time I have worked in many I.T. roles. I’ve always found it really enjoyable; the idea of using technology to help people. Where did you work before KSS? I worked for Apple for more than five years. Working for this company was an amazing experience. I was privileged to be able to take advantage of flexible scheduling, allowing me to complete my Masters Degree while working there. Tell us about your family? My Wife Yvonne is a beautiful, strong woman who loves helping people. She is a Psychologist and Registered Nurse and provides clinical advice to people with health issues. What were your first impressions of KSS? I found that everyone was really happy

working at KSS and then I realised why; KSS culture promotes Freedom, Prosperity and Responsibility. Do you have any hobbies/interest? Although I love all sports, my favourite is soccer. I’ve been playing soccer since I was five years old, playing for many clubs and divisions. What is your favourite food? My favourite food would have to be medium rare steak with mushroom sauce, chips and salad and for dessert a nice Italian Gelato. To sum up Kennards in one word would be? Prosperity! This is the first word that comes to my mind when I think of KSS.
