Summary

"Gracie is a truly outstanding, hardworking, effortlessly professional individual. It was not only her creativity and dedication to the task at hand, but her ability to excel in a highly stressful, fast-paced environment that truly set her apart. Gracie was a vital asset to our team, whose flexibility and availability meant that she could always be counted on. Any future employer would be lucky to have her."- Talie May (Universe of Cool Founder)


"I have never received such positive feedback from guests than when Gracie Kate was on shift. Whether she was simply assisting in pre-celebratory table layout, tackling unforeseen dilemmas or handing out canapés, she did all with a smile. I am sad to see her go and feel fortunate to have had her as a member of our team."- Amy Baker (Patten and Baker Catering)
