This month, we meet Becky Tamm-Shettler, Clark University’s Endpoint Systems Manager.  

Born and raised in Massachusetts, Becky has worked in higher education technology for over 30 years, with the past year here at Clark. The best part of her experience working here so far, she says, is getting to spend every day with the incredibly conscientious Endpoint team and connecting with others in the ITS department to learn new things and solve problems.  

As Endpoint Systems Manager, Becky is responsible for purchasing and provisioning computer hardware for all university needs—basically, Becky makes sure everyone gets the computer they need to do their best work! To better understand IT work and its processes, she recommends reading Checklist Manifesto by Atul Gawande or watching the series Halt and Catch Fire, a period drama about the early decades of computer development.  

When Becky’s not working, she loves traveling, gardening, hiking, sewing, and riding her ebike. If you’d like to learn more about what she does, or chat about your next travel destination, click here find Becky’s contact information.
