Reemah Smith first joined Logic as a Customer Support representative, quickly moving to Logic's Professional Service Business Unit (PSBU) to gain more hands-on experience.

"Once in PSBU I had the luck of working with Michael Roberts, who was instrumental in helping me gain the knowledge I have now," said Reemah. "I love working for Logic because I'm always learning something new and exciting and there are plenty of perks here." Reemah currently works in Logic's Internal IT Department as a Network Administrator. She is studying for her CCNA & Cisco IP Telephony Certifications.
