Ryan Tuttle, Dutch Bros Coffee, Former Boss

I'm honored to recommend Alexis as a project coordinator extraordinaire! She played a pivotal role in coordinating our Learning & Development team and a very fun program at Dutch Bros called the Creative Collective. This program specifically provides coaching and resources for our talented broistas on how to take their creative passions to a wider audience and in the marketing context for the company in some cases. Alexis eagerly took on the challenge of helping launch and continue running this program. She did a fantastic job juggling all the moving parts required while adding her own creative input to the behind-the-scenes workflow. She always makes sure program participants feel heard and provided exactly what they need to thrive. I also appreciate that Alexis infuses fun and positivity into everything she tackles. She would be an invaluable team player at any company looking to inspire creativity and innovation through their programs, and I look forward to the day we might even sit on the same team together!
