FOOD TRUCK MANAGER
AUSTIN INDEPENDENT SCHOOL DISTRICT
AUSTIN, TEXAS
AGE 28
Top accomplishment this year:
Being part of the implementation of our new food truck program, from the initial planning to the actual implementation.
What would you like to accomplish in your career in the short term?
Expanding our menu to incorporate more multicultural menu items is my immediate goal. Also, keeping up my perfect driving record.
What experience have you learned an important lesson from?
Always overprepare, because having too much food is always better than not enough. One time we had to turn someone away from the food truck because we were out of food, and drove home the importance of this lesson.
What do you value most in a workplace? Are there any ways your workplace delivers on that?
Openness and clear communication are key. Our director is great at sending out weekly updates and newsletters that keep us all informed about current plans. Our district also uses a photo-sharing app to help all the managers share what's going on, as well as sharing creative ideas and strategies.
