In this series, we take a look at the amazing work being accomplished by members of our community. These are the game-changers, the inspirational leaders, and the passion-driven individuals who are changing our community, our health and our planet.
A: Hello! My name is Maria, a Colombian coffee lover! I work at Impact Queens Quay as a Barista and Manager On Duty (MOD).
A. I started as a Barista two months ago, I am very passionate about coffee. Last month I began working as a MOD. Everything has been excellent, it has been a pleasant journey with good colleagues, an excellent work environment with lots of learnings.
A. One of my favorite things about my role is the relationship with customers. I have always been a big fan of working in customer service, it is fundamental in any business. As a Barista and MOD, I think good communication and empathy are essential when navigating any situation. I am a lover of good coffee and at Impact Kitchen, the coffee is excellent quality, which makes working with it one of the things that I like the most!
A. Outside of my job, I really like to dance, play tennis, read and spend time with my dog. In the summer, I really like to go for walks and try new restaurants. I also enjoy spending time at home, cooking and watching TV.
A. Community means being part of a place, belonging to a place and not feeling pressured to change. At Impact the community is amazing, both with the employees and the customers. The community that is created at Impact is health-orientated and that makes working here every day more enjoyable!
A. My favourite items on the menu are without a doubt the Hero Power Bowl with salmon, a Turmeric Sunshine Tonic plus a good coffee. The Hero with salmon has everything, from vegetables, carbohydrates and protein, it’s balanced and equally delicious.
A. To make an impact every day, I need discipline and consistency in all the things I do. I always seek to take care of myself both physically and mentally. I have diabetes so my personal "impact" is to take care of myself day by day and to maintain a balanced lifestyle. Working at Impact has helped me achieve my goals easily because of the high-quality food that always hits the spot!
We look forward to introducing you to more members of our community who are making an Impact every day.
