It is not a stretch to say that Garden Spot Village is the best employer I’ve ever had! Both residents and staff are so kind and I feel safe working here. Great benefits and staff appreciation events. The food is wonderful and Starbucks drinks are served, which is a fun perk if you love coffee as much as I do. I started as a Barista in Central Kitchen, moved into Volunteer Services managing schedules and events, and became a Buyer and Visual Merchandiser for the gift shop. I am now in Marketing as the Design Specialist, helping new and existing residents select finishes for their next homes — and I love it! Having gone to school for Interior Design, I am grateful to work for a company that is open to professional growth and focused on unique skills and passions.
I started as a server in high school. I knew I always wanted to get better at cooking. When I talked with my managers about it they gave me the opportunity to grow in the kitchen and every day I continue to grow with food preparation. Working in an environment that values me and my growth is what makes working here so great!
