Welcome to Arizona Technology Council’s TechFocus Member Spotlight, the Council’s podcast highlighting the innovators, entrepreneurs and tech leaders shaping Arizona’s thriving technology ecosystem. I’m Eric Miller, founder and co-owner of PADT, Inc., and today I’m sitting down with not one, but two guests from member company Paragon IT Professionals. Joining me today are Jessica Grant, President of Paragon IT Professionals and Paragon CEO and co-founder, Craig Jackman. Founded in 1997, Paragon is an IT staffing, project and leadership solutions firm. The company helps organizations build and strengthen their technology teams through contingent staffing, project-based solutions, and leadership development. I'm excited for a great conversation about the evolving IT staffing landscape and the opportunity to get to know Jessica and Craig a bit better along the way.
