Bio
Jena Dyches
Mallory was an asset to the success and execution of events in our Catering department. She had such a charisma for going the extra mile for clients and associates that is not only above and beyond, but also so passionate. She never wanted to stop working and was always right on top of tasks before even asked. She is a rare breed and I would steal her back in a second.
