Cari Richer Ross, Director, IT & Project Manager

I made my way to Cleveland years ago via Chicago and New York and consider it my official home despite a few more moves through Chicago, Pennsylvania and South Africa. As they say, once you get CLE in your system, you always make your way back. I do love traveling to different cities and countries for vacation, but I’ve found that I find virtually everything I want and need right here and it’s all so easily accessible, making it the perfect place to call home.

I love how CLE has a big city feel on a smaller city scale. I can fit in a game of golf followed by a board meeting, dinner overlooking the beautiful Lake Erie, and a Broadway show in just one day!

My husband and I have two kids in college and two golden retrievers. We are captivated by Cleveland professional sports and playing our own sports outside all year-round (paddle tennis, golf, skiing, biking, hiking). The four seasons are exceptionally beautiful here, so we try to be outside, enjoying them as much as possible, especially when finishing the day at one of the amazing local restaurants, pubs, or breweries.

At EA, I get to share my love of Cleveland and all it has to offer in combination with my background in IT.  As anyone who knows me says: a job doesn’t get much better than that!
