## Getting to Know Savannah Knox: Our Newest Team Member
We're excited to introduce Savannah Knox, who has joined Tangram as our new Human Resources Administrator. With her fresh perspective and people-first approach, Savannah brings exactly the kind of energy that strengthens our team culture.
### From Account Management to HR Excellence
Savannah comes to us from the startup world, where she worked as an Account Manager connecting companies with university experiential learning programs. Her transition into HR reflects a passion she discovered while pursuing her MBA—a natural evolution that combines her people skills with strategic business thinking.
**Hometown:** San Diego, CA **Education:** MBA, plus NCAA golf experience at Long Beach State **Years playing golf:** Over 15 years of competitive experience
### Beyond the Office
When she's not focused on HR initiatives, you'll find Savannah cheering on her beloved Los Angeles Chargers and San Diego Padres. As a longtime athlete who played college golf, she brings that same competitive spirit and dedication to her professional role.
Savannah shares her free time with her "hyperactive" dog, who she describes as more likely to sprint around an island than help with survival tasks—but perfect company nonetheless.
### Quick Insights from Our Q&A
**Desert island essentials?** Water, a fishing pole, and her energetic dog for entertainment and companionship.
**Karaoke go-to?** "Take Me Home, Country Roads" by John Denver. Her reasoning: "Anyone who's ever belted out the 'West Virginiaaaa' part knows exactly why."
**Dream party theme?** A 90s throwback with Tiger Woods as guest of honor—because nothing says iconic 90s like Tiger in his prime.
**Culinary adventures?** While not particularly adventurous, she's a sushi enthusiast with a particular fondness for octopus nigiri.
### Looking Forward
Savannah is eager to expand her HR expertise while contributing to the positive culture that drew her to Tangram initially. Her focus on continuous improvement and growth aligns perfectly with our team values.
"I hope to bring positive energy to contribute to the culture that drew me to Tangram in the first place, as well as my personal focus on continual improvement and growth," she shares.
Welcome to the team, Savannah! We're looking forward to seeing how your unique blend of startup agility, HR passion, and competitive spirit enhances our already strong culture.
