We’re continuing to honor the extraordinary women on the Novva team by telling their stories via our Meet the Team series. Next up is Michele Mecque – OSTII/ CPR First Aid Trainer. 

 

What does a typical day look like for you?

On days I’m not teaching a CPR class, I’m busy patrolling the entire property. Once those are crossed off my list, I’m helping at the front desk, monitoring cameras, greeting guests, and helping them sign in. I’m also part of the Safety Team, looking for anything that could harm employees and contractors. 

 

What is your favorite part of being on the Novva team?

I love how every day is different, and the atmosphere at Novva is also unique. I love it!  

 

If you could trade roles with someone else at Novva for the day, who would it be and why?

Honestly, I’ve been trained in many different roles at Novva, and at this time, I wouldn’t want to trade roles with anyone.  I’m in the best spot for me, and I love doing what I do. I would love to learn every role there is here at Novva, though.  

 

What trend in the industry are you most excited about?

We have some really exciting building plans that are starting to come to fruition. I’m excited to see the finished product once all the construction is completed. 

 

Outside of work, what’s something you’re passionate about?

I write music, build and paint minifigs. I’m also restoring a 1967 Ford Mustang. 

 

What would you be doing if you weren’t working in the data center/tech/telecom industry?

That’s a great question. I’m honestly not sure. I love what I do so it’s hard to imagine anything else. 

 

What is something that you think would surprise people to hear about you?

I received a record contract through Sound Column Music when I was 16 years old. I also have a songwriting contract with Paramount Music in Nashville. 

 

What is the one thing you would bring with you to a desert island?

I’d definitely bring my fur babies with me. 

 

What is the best piece of advice you’ve ever been given?

The only people you can rely on are family.
