Inbound Sales Representative

Started: January 2015
Location: Orem, UT
Costa Vida was a great place to work, their corporate office was really close, and they got things done right. I have always had kind managers and teammates, and though it can get incredibly busy some days, it is a nice place to earn money while in school. I have done a number of jobs at Costa Vida including washing dishes, repairing the dish washer, even at other locations, making sauces and preparing ingredients, making tortillas and even making a good salad. This job taught me that it is okay. Note: I have actually worked at Costa Vida a few times in my career, basically any time I needed side cash. Use that information however you'd like.

Janitorial, Food Prep, 'Pizza artist?'

Started: January 2015
Location: Lehi, UT
I had... an experience at Pizza Studio, and this gets a little drama filled, not only did my ex girlfriend work, there, my new girlfriend started there as well, and we met at the introduction meeting. The location we were working at, in thanksgiving Point, was completely new and no one had made a pizza in it before that day. My mother also started working a short time after, you can see how things went weird quickly. Either way, I had never done anything like that, and I was happy to see that Pizza Studio has learned a lot from those days.

Drive through attendant, Janitorial, Food Prep, Cashier

Started: January 2013
Location: Lehi, UT
Supervisor: Brittany Simmons
I can't tell you how much I loved working at Popeye's Chicken. I started there only a few months after it had opened, and people could not get enough of the chicken. This is my favorite job, and considering it was my first job... and it was a miracle that things turned out the way they did. I met my first girlfriend there, and my buddy from school also also started a few months after I did. We rocked that drive through, him and made "Chicken and Change" which meant that by the time the customer could pay, they could take a bit of the chicken. We were tossing bags out the door, biscuits, tenders... ah, good times. Note: If you go to that Popeye's location, ask for something called the 'Nasty Wrap'. I promise, it is so good, and I would know. My buddy and I invented it. We also had a 'Nasty Po' Boy' but the store discontinued the Po' Boy buns in trade for chicken sandwich buns.
