We head north to frigid Boston this week so Marin can bask in the warm glow of our employee spotlight! Marin has been an iFixYouri technician for 9 months, repairing smartphones and computers for the good people of Cambridge. Hailing from Albania, Marin supports the New England Patriots and Italian soccer giants Juventus FC along with his hometown club KF Vllaznia Shkodër. Marin is a regular jack-of-all-trades, interested in financial markets, astrophysics, and stock trading, and can repair almost anything, from plumbing to electrical systems. As an economics and accounting graduate of UMass Boston, he can do taxes and balance checkbooks, and hopes to one day have his own accounting firm. This former coffee roaster (back in Albania) has an odd history of mishaps: electrocuted at age 4, hit by a car at 8, and at 10 years old he fell from the second floor of a building. Luckily, Marin survived all that, and repaired a Nokia 3311 when he was 14. We find this to be poetic, as the 3311 is as indestructible as he is. We’re glad Marin’s bad luck has improved, since he’s a warm, friendly guy and a great asset to iFixYouri’s team. If you’re ever in the Cambridge area, stop in and say hi to Marin!
