As a Florida native he has employed his amicable spirit in the categories of hospitality, retail (Go Publix!), and most recently radio. He is a go getter, and is always thinking outside the box. Michael loves a challenge, and greets it head on with his creativity and critical thinking skills.

If Michael is not home on the Emerald Coast paddle boarding and fishing, he is likely hiking the mountains of North America or exploring a new city for its culture and rich cuisine.

Xavier Galarza

Maximo Analyst

I am a recent graduate who is motivated to learn and develop new skills. I like to challenge myself every day. I want to learn all about Maximo in order to teach others how effective Maximo can be for them. I have a good understanding of the development side and work well with problem solving. I am grateful for the position I am in, I love surrounding myself with great people that are more knowledgeable than me who will help me grow as a person. In my free time I love to play videos games, watch/ play sports and spend time with family. I am a competitive person and believe I am pretty good at all sports. My other passion is to stream video games I play and connect with others online, I love showing others how to play a certain game or even show them a skill didn’t know existed. I love entertaining others and creating content for others to watch and enjoy.

Derrick

Maximo Analyst

Derrick is someone who lives for mental exercise. New challenges spin his problem solving wheels. Defeat is not an option and challenges make him smile. His catch phrase is “I’m an Engineer”. Derrick takes pride in his work. He is a highly self-driven talent when it comes to his interests and programming couldn’t be any higher on this list.
Outside of the office Derricks interests includes cars, motorcycles, and anything generally fast and loud. He stays in the loop on latest in tech, loves gaming and most of all is a die-hard anime fan. Outside of bike night, you are most likely to catch him relaxing in the glow of lights from his PC.

COMMUNITY OUTREACH

At A3J Group, we enjoy taking part of community activities and being a small part of the change for good. Every member of our team plays an active role in giving back to the community. At times, this can include health walks, exposing other people’s children to raccoons (the Boy Scout’s motto: “Be Prepared”) or helping them create air-powered rockets to learn about science and engineering. We’re excited to participate in some new opportunities this year.
