I joined Intel in June of 2008 after spending several years in High Performance Computing (HPC) and am currently a marketing manager for the Intel Business Exchange (http://sx.intel.com). Some fun facts about me- I played college basketball, took my first trans-Atlantic flight alone when I was five, and have an affinity to promote Sweden, my other home country. |

Now, it would probably be in poor taste (and probably violate Intel rules) to use this post as a forum to push my personal political beliefs, so I will clench my teeth and attempt to refrain. It's not new news that the US is in an economic crisis and something needs to be done soon. Very soon. Being [...]

Misperceptions

Having very recently joined Intel, there are a lot of things about the company that many people (sometimes including myself) probably didn't realize. Did you know that Intel's Software and Solutions Group (in sheer size) could be considered one of the largest companies in the world?! A misperception is that Intel is only a chip maker, [...]
