PEER 1′s IT Security Engineer Scott Clark (also known as ‘McGyver’) will be playing with his well-known band, “Asphalt Valentine” at South by SouthWest this year in Austin, Texas on March 19, 2009, 6:30pm at Club Malaia.

I had the opportunity to steal a few moments out of Scott’s hectic schedule for an interview -

How long have you been a PEER 1 employee? Asphalt Valentine has quite the exposure, do you find it hard to balance IT work and your music?

I have been employed with Peer 1 since April 2003 (via Interland in Atlanta), so that puts me about 6 years next month.  If any one remembers “Green Box” and “Project Clean” you will realized just how long that has been…  I was hired on a Sr. Security Engineer and haven’t budged since.  J  But it has been a terribly interesting ride so far…  I have seen a lot of faces come and go and have also seen a lot of organizational changes since those early days, but I am incredibly proud and grateful to have ended up where I am at now – at Peer 1.  Peer 1 is an awesome company with great talent and a bright future.  Peer 1 has it right – it is all about the customer, and if we ever forget that, we will be doomed to failure.
