10-Second Bio: Adam Mangum
Title: Web Developer
Department/Unit: Communications
Location: 1111 Franklin Street
When I started working at UCOP: May 2010
What I do for OP in five words or less: Make stuff! Digitally of course.
The best part about working for OP: You mean other than my co-workers and the chance to help shape the future of a world-class university? The chair I inherited. It is truly a treat for the senses.
Something you don’t know about me: I started DJing in the 8th grade and I’m a huge scratch nerd.
One weird fact about the town I grew up in: Hillsboro, Oregon is the current home of WWF superstar and Hulk Hogan arch-nemesis Rowdy Roddy Piper, despised the world over for having kicked Cyndi Lauper in the head in 1985.
If I could have any job in the world (besides the one I have now), I would be: I’m split on this. Part of me would like to be an architect/urban planner/civil engineer. The other part would prefer to own and operate a vanilla farm in Hawaii.
