Leslie Mackie wanted to build a vibrant community around her love of artisan breads. The early days in Belltown, back in 1993, were a whirl of activity and excitement. The crowds gathered, the bread earned a\u00a0loyal following and garnered awards, and as demand mounted, we opened a wholesale business. Behind every success was a team of talented and hard-working individuals.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">A few years ago, we sat down to find words for the values that drive us. We considered the many valuable contributions of our diverse team of bakers, pastry chefs, savory cooks, baristas,\u00a0caf\u00e9\u00a0staff and delivery drivers that make up Macrina. We identified five core values: Hard working, remaining positive, continuously improving, embracing diversity, and integrity in all we do. Then we established an annual award for each value.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Our 2020 core value winners lead by example, and their commitment to excellence is a big part of what makes Macrina Bakery shine.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><b>Hard Working: Juan Carlos Machorro, Steward Lead<\/b><a href=\"https:\/\/blog.macrinabakery.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Juan_Carlos_3778.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-4203\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.macrinabakery.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Juan_Carlos_3778.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"670\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nIn this tough year, Juan Carlos has impressed everyone with his resolve to get the job done. Pandemic-related staff cuts made for a lean crew, and it seemed no challenge was too much for Juan Carlos. From fixing water meters for the baking department to snaking clogged floor drains, to washing dishes and taking out the garbage, Juan Carlos, sweat on his brow, works tirelessly behind the scenes to make everything work.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><b>Remaining Positive: Josh Kull,\u00a0Sodo\u00a0Lead<\/b>\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/blog.macrinabakery.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Joshua_Kull-copy.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-4193\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.macrinabakery.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Joshua_Kull-copy.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"750\" height=\"563\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nWhether interacting with a customer or a fellow worker, Josh is cheerful, kind and genuine. All of our core values could describe Josh, but his ability to remain positive, especially in the toughest situations, stands out. His positive attitude is infectious and inspires those around him, uplifting the entire staff.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><b>Continuously Improving: Theo Ngo, Savory Department, Assistant Manager<\/b>\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/blog.macrinabakery.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Theo_Ngo-copy.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-4194\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.macrinabakery.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Theo_Ngo-copy.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"750\" height=\"562\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nIn 2018, Theo was promoted to assistant manager in our savory department because of his attention to detail and ability to step into any position in savory. To improve efficiency, he developed spreadsheets to capture weekly production numbers for our savory items. Theo\u2019s attention to detail and his determination to continuously improve our ordering, inventory, and new product rollouts has made us better able to survive the many business challenges presented by Covid-19.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><b>Embracing Diversity: Scott Romine, Human Resources, Assistant Manager<\/b><a href=\"https:\/\/blog.macrinabakery.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Scott_Romine_3768.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-4204\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.macrinabakery.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Scott_Romine_3768.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"750\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nAt Macrina Bakery, we employ people from many nations and diverse cultural backgrounds. Scotty\u2019s job in human resources often puts him in the position of assessing someone\u2019s ability to succeed in a particular job. Scotty values a diverse workplace. With respect for each applicant, Scotty takes the time to listen and answer questions and to carefully find someone with the attitude and skills needed for the job he is hiring for. Scotty\u2019s work has brought more diversity to the Macrina crew.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><b>Integrity in All We Do: Jennifer Truong, Wholesale Office, General Manager<\/b>\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/blog.macrinabakery.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Jennifer_Truong.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-4195\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.macrinabakery.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Jennifer_Truong.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"750\" height=\"563\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nAt our current scale of operations, ensuring integrity in all we do requires thorough attention to every detail. As the general manager of our wholesale office, Jen interacts with both customers and staff. She brings compassion and directness to the task. Her attentive management and the improvements she\u00a0has\u00a0made to our procedures and systems help keep the many parts of Macrina moving in harmony.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Macrina Bakery was born of a dream.
