Q: What is your favourite thing about your role?

A: My favourite thing about this role is the opportunity to delight customers with fresh and delicious food. It's gratifying to be able to brighten someone's day and make a positive impact on their lifestyle and well-being. 

Additionally, I thoroughly enjoy the collaborative and supportive environment at Impact Kitchen, where everyone works together as a team to find innovative ways to serve customers with the best possible experience. This sense of shared commitment to excellence makes the work feel more meaningful and enjoyable.

Q: Outside of work, what lights you up? What are some of your hobbies & interests?

A: When I'm not at work, I find joy in spending time in nature. Going for hikes or walks in the great outdoors is a favorite pastime of mine, as it allows me to connect with the natural world and recharge my batteries.

Another hobby that I enjoy is sketching and painting. Engaging in these creative pursuits is not only a fun way to pass the time, but it also provides me with a sense of relaxation and mindfulness. When I'm immersed in the creative process, I'm able to quiet my mind and let my imagination flow freely, which is something that I find deeply rewarding.

I cherish the time I spend pursuing my interests and hobbies, as they bring balance and enrichment to my life outside of work.

Q: Impacting the community is important to our team, what does ‘community’ mean to you?

A: To me, community is all about connection and shared purpose. I feel fortunate to be a part of a team that is dedicated to promoting healthy living and making a positive impact on the community.

For me, community means more than just a group of people who happen to live or work in the same area. It's about a shared commitment to health, wellness, and sustainability, and a belief that we can make a difference by working together towards these goals.

By doing so, I hope to inspire and empower our customers to make healthy choices and feel their best.

Q: What is your favourite Impact Kitchen menu item & why?

A: It's tough to choose just one favourite item from Impact Kitchen's menu, as everything is so carefully crafted and packed with flavour. That being said, there are a few items that I always find myself coming back to.

One of my go-to meals is the Zesty Mexican Power Bowl, which is a delicious blend of black beans and flavourful toppings. The combination of textures and flavours is simply amazing, and I love how it leaves me feeling energized and satisfied.

Another item that I can't resist is the Restore smoothie, which is a refreshing blend of berries and almond milk. It's the perfect pick-me-up on a hot day, and I love how it's packed with vitamins and minerals that help support overall health and well-being.

Last but not least, the Almond Protein Brownie is a true indulgence that I can feel good about. It's rich and chocolatey, with a satisfying chewy texture, and it's packed with protein to help keep me feeling full and satisfied.

Q: How do you strive to make an Impact every day?

A: One way I try to make an impact every day is by continuously learning and honing my skills. In addition to this, I also try to approach each day with a positive attitude and a willingness to help and support others. I am committed to making a meaningful impact every day, and I feel fortunate to be a part of a team that shares this same sense of purpose and passion.

We look forward to introducing you to more members of our community who are making an Impact every day.
