Omari Jones graduated this Spring with a Bachelor of Science in Digital Forensics. This July, Omari will be heading to Atlanta to take on a full-time position at IBM.

Before graduation, we sat down with Omari to learn how Massry has helped him during his IBM internship, his roles as an EY mentor, co-head of the Digital Forensic Ambassadors, and Vice President of the Digital Forensics Association and what he plans to do in his post-grad life.

Connect with Omari on LinkedIn to follow his journey. We can’t wait to see what he does next!
