Jeff Earl

Business Development Manager

Coming straight out of college with no industry experience, Sapphire and its employees have been nothing short of an encouraging family to help me in gaining the experience I need to become an asset for the company. Although I was recently hired, I still wake up every day, excited to come back for another day of building and learning. Work aside, there's plenty of other reasons to get excited during the week such as doughnut Friday, bingo or when the company takes its employees out for bonding events. All in all, I enjoy the work pace and I am more then happy to be a part of a company that was so inviting and feels truly genuine.
