Tyson Tiatia

SMB Sales Executive – Utah, US

What was your very first job?

I am super proud of this. When I was 12, my mother had this big tub of flour we never used. I would go to the dollar store and buy bags of balloons. I would then fill up the balloons with the unused flour and sell them as stress balls to my peers. I sold them for $1 each, so my profit margins were ridiculous!

How did you get into your current job or field?

I knew in college that I had a passion for technology and sales. I decided to pursue a bachelors degree in integrated studies (combining Computer Science, Network Technology Management, and Profesional Sales).

What’s a fun fact about you that not many people know?

When I was 12 years old my finger got slammed in the door and I am missing a small piece of the tip of my middle finger.

What is your favorite activity or hobby that you enjoy outside of work?

I am really into disk golf right now! I am obsessed with it! I also like camping in the summer and snowboarding in the winter months.

What is your best memory or favorite thing about working at Codefresh?

KubeCon 2019 when we rented a pirate boat for a pre-event party! I am getting really excited for in person conferences again! Looking forward to KubeCon North America 2021 as it will be one of our first in-person gatherings since COVID.
