Since joining Resource Data, James has worked on a housing-related database project that’s been lively and ever-changing. It’s pushed him to adapt quickly and come up with creative solutions, making an overall amazing experience. At the Anchorage branch, he enjoys the updated office space, catching up with colleagues at events, and the occasional shared lunch. Above all, he values the work-life balance and the genuine sense of community he’s found here.

Beyond his role, James is active in his church, volunteering with youth and young adult ministries. He stays on the move through the gym, ultimate frisbee, hiking, and other activities—though he’s still exploring winter-friendly options. He’s fluent in Tagalog and has a passion for tabletop role-playing games. Living in Anchorage, James loves the mountain views to the east, the abundance of nearby outdoor activities, and the ease of getting around town in under half an hour.

Talent Acquisition Lead
Corporate

For Nathan, the best part of working at Resource Data is the people. What stands out most to him is the strong sense of community across the company, something he says is rare in organizations of this size—especially ones spread out from Houston to Anchorage. That connection is a big reason he stays. One of his most memorable projects was leading the move to a new applicant tracking system, which made it easier for candidates to apply and for the hiring team to connect with them. As Resource Data’s talent acquisition lead, Nathan enjoys helping bring in the right people for the right projects and connecting with colleagues from all over the country.

When the workday ends, Nathan often volunteers at community theatres in Houston or enjoys tabletop, card, and video games. Before his career in recruiting, he even performed in a children’s theatre company’s original musical at the Miller Outdoor Theatre. Living in Houston, he loves the city’s endless variety—from its world-class arts and music scene to its incredible food, which goes far beyond BBQ and Tex-Mex. Whether it’s catching an Astros game, exploring the Museum District, or a night at the theatre, Nathan never runs out of things to do.

Kandace lives in Palmer, Alaska, where the small-town feel and towering vegetables make it a uniquely special place to call home. She appreciates Resource Data’s strong sense of flexibility and the good people she’s surrounded by. One of her favorite projects was working on the Chugach Electric Association (CEA) acquisition of ML&P, where she collaborated with an exceptional team from both Resource Data and CEA — an experience she found both rewarding and memorable.

Kandace enjoys spending time recreating with her family and their dogs. She’s also artistic and gives back to her community through annual cleanup events and by volunteering at her children’s schools for field trips and sports activities.

Project Manager
Anchorage, Alaska

Richard enjoys the challenge of stepping into a client’s struggles and helping them discover solutions or guiding them as they bring their vision to life. At Resource Data, he highlights the variety that comes from working with a wide range of industries and technologies, while still having the chance to focus on his areas of expertise. What he appreciates most, though, is the thoughtful way the company recognizes and applies each employee’s strengths. His favorite project so far has been the Data Warehouse Modernization Project for the State of Alaska Department of Education and Early Development. It’s especially meaningful because it connects to his background in education, turning his time as a teacher and assistant principal into experience he now applies through data and dashboards at the state level.

Richard spends his free time running on roads and trails, a hobby that balances out his love of food and trying new restaurants and breweries. Along with football, which he follows closely on weekends, Richard enjoys bowling and once competed in a local tournament with the company team, Ctrl + Alt + Strike. Most of all, he loves outdoor adventures with his wife and two daughters, and Anchorage makes it easy for them to spend time together—whether it’s biking through trails, finding rocks at the beach, or heading into the Chugach Mountains just minutes from home.

Mike Edgington
Sr. Project Manager
Anchorage, Alaska

Mike thrives on working with a variety clients across different industries, that keeps things fresh and gives him a front-row seat to how technology is shaping all corners of the world. One of his favorite parts of the job isn’t the tech itself, it’s the ability to craft technical project proposals, piecing together the heart of a solution from clues the client might not even realize they’ve given.

The Anchorage branch has the same quirky, special energy as Alaska itself, and when he’s not at work, you’ll find him outside—hiking, climbing, skiing, or lending a hand in the community. He calls Girdwood home, where the Chugach mountains are basically his backyard playground.

Fun Fact: Mike is a licensed bear hazer!

Rob appreciates the strong commitment to work-life balance at Resource Data — something he feels is truly encouraged within his life. One of his most memorable projects was the Electronic Signature Voter Project, which gave him a behind-the-scenes look at a fascinating part of the country’s democratic process.

That same dedication to people carries over into Rob’s life outside the office. He serves as a Pastor of a small church and works closely with groups like HeartReach Center, FrontLine Mission, and other local organizations to support his community. Living in Wasilla also means he can take full advantage of its small-town charm, great community, and the many walking and hiking trails just minutes away.

Nicholas values Resource Data’s people-first culture and the genuine support he’s received during personal challenges. Work-life balance tops his list, along with the opportunity to work across a variety of projects and technologies. He especially appreciated working on CUI devices, where he helped implement a custom UI library—an experience he found both challenging and rewarding under the guidance of a great tech lead.

Personal time for Nicholas includes time with his wife and young daughter. He spends his free time reading, playing video games or chess, writing poetry and songs, and tinkering with personal projects to learn new frameworks. He’s recently been diving into React Native for mobile development and plans to focus on Python and Pandas next. A Portland-area local, he loves being just a few hours from the beach and having access to hiking trails, city life, and all four seasons.
