Meet Marcos Suazo

What’s your official job title?
Network Infrastructure Specialist

Years/Months at NYU:
17 years, 4 months

What’s your hometown?
The Bronx, New York

What kind of projects do you work on?
I am often involved with projects that provide NYU network and telephony services to new locations. I have also been involved with projects such as network and space upgrades in various locations under the NYU umbrella.

What’s your role in the AMC?
I am an AMC Alternate Senator, an Alternative Representative for NYU IT, and the lead for the AMC Brave Conversations. 

Why NYU?
Why not?  To be able to say I am a part of a community that houses students and faculty who are among the most accomplished and most successful in this nation and maybe even the word is a gift.  Even more, being able to say I get to be a part of work that supports the most accomplished students and faculty is something that brings me an immense amount of joy.

What is your fondest memory of your time here?
The very first AMC Brave Conversations Episode.  Administrators took time out of their day to talk, to learn, to grow, and to get better.  I believe NYU will be better because of it.

Name your favorite spot on campus.
Washington Mews.  There is nothing like it on a nice spring day.  It makes you forget you are in Manhattan.

What are you currently reading?
“Lessons from a third-grade dropout” Dr. Rick Rigsby  (Life changing stuff!)

Coffee or tea?
This has to be a trick question.  However, I will play along.  Coffee.

If you were a superhero, who would you be and why?
My wife.  Putting up with my craziness is quite the task.

What is your go-to app on your phone right now?
Evernote

Favorite travel destination?
Vermont

Describe yourself in only three words.
Persistent. Passionate. Purposed.

Any advice for new administrators?
Everyone you meet has something to teach you.  Everyone.
