I am majoring in Computer Science and will be a senior at Ball State University in the fall. As I pursued summer internships earlier this year, my dad gave me some advice. He told me to pick three places that would be my dream internship and apply to them, even if I thought I might […]

I made a New Year’s resolution this year to learn a new thing every month. It’s been going great so far. I have taken classes and immersed myself in everything from public speaking to playing guitar, brewing beer to surfing. I enjoy learning new things, and not just in my personal life. I’m fortunate that […]

Back-to-school season got a little brighter this year for local youth in need thanks to our St. Louis team. Colleagues donated school supplies to Circle Of Concern, a food pantry that aids low-income families living in west St. Louis County. Items included markers, backpacks, pencils, notebooks, and more. The organization distributes grade-appropriate supplies to students […]

I first heard about Soles4Souls through a social media post from a friend who works at Brighton, a retail store that has a shoe collection bin. Soles4Souls advances its anti-poverty mission by collecting new and used shoes and distributing them to people in need to create jobs in poor and disadvantaged communities. The organization has distributed […]

One of my Perficient Indianapolis colleagues, Aaron Sherrick, is very involved in the Westfield Youth Sports, Inc. (WYSI). He recently asked our team if we could help him with cleaning up and mulching trees and flowerbeds near a memorial at their baseball facility. This is a busy time of the year for everyone on our […]

Our Microsoft team looks forward to the annual Microsoft Inspire conference (formerly known as the Worldwide Partner Conference) for many reasons. Keynotes and networking are big draws, but we especially enjoy the opportunity to give back through the U.S. One Commercial Partner (OCP) community project. In 2016, we sponsored and participated in Microsoft’s community outreach event […]

My first project with Habitat for Humanity was a rewarding experience. I enjoyed being able to do so much good for the less fortunate members of my community. I wanted to support the nonprofit organization again and turned to my Perficient team in Lafayette, LA, this time to join along. I reached out to our […]

I had a pleasant surprise during one of my recent team meetings at Perficient. I’m a Lead Technical Consultant based out of our Indianapolis office. Outside of work, I’m a classically trained singer, and I spend much of my free time pursuing my passion. Most recently, I have been fortunate to be the “Official Voice of […]

Colleagues in our Minneapolis office have joined the nationwide movement to replace the usual four-wheel commute with two wheels. May 19 marked this year’s National Bike to Work Day, an effort to encourage a healthy and safe alternative to driving a vehicle. Some of our colleagues biked from home on that day; others decided to […]
