Since 2013, she ran our McGraw caf\u00e9. Efficient and gregarious, Lizz charmed customers, trained new employees, and kept the busy caf\u00e9 running smoothly. Over the summer of 2021, we promoted her to Assistant Retail Operations Manager.<\/p>\n<p>In her new role, she will float between all five of our caf\u00e9s, supporting Crystal Kitchin, our Retail Operations Manager. Lizz will help train employees, support managers, improve consistency between caf\u00e9s, and fill scheduling gaps. Most comfortable behind the counter, Lizz will frequently be found in one of the caf\u00e9s helping customers find what they\u2019re looking for when she\u2019s not updating our training manuals or teaching new employees the craft of making great coffee drinks.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/blog.macrinabakery.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/lizz_belltown_pastries_web.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-4430\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.macrinabakery.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/lizz_belltown_pastries_web.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"801\" height=\"1200\" \/><\/a>Asked how it feels to leave McGraw, her workplace for the last seven and half years, Lizz says, \u201cIt\u2019s not as hard as I thought it would be. I definitely miss the regulars and all the crew there, but I\u2019m enjoying getting to know the customers and crew at other stores. I\u2019m having fun.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>With new challenges on the horizon, Lizz is excited to develop new skills. \u201cMy biggest challenge right now is learning how to best support the caf\u00e9 GMs to help them execute their vision for the store,\u201d Lizz says.<\/p>\n<p>When she\u2019s not working, Lizz spends a lot of time planning her next big adventure. Every year (pandemic aside), she takes an epic trip. In 2020, just before the world shut down, she spent two weeks in New Zealand\u2014and sneaked in a St. Patrick\u2019s Day pub crawl in Hawaii on the trip back to Seattle. When travel is safe again, Lizz is planning a big trip to Ireland.<\/p>\n<p>Lizz\u2019s favorite part of working for Macrina is the holiday season, our busiest time of year. She says, \u201cBeing in one of the caf\u00e9s at 2:30 a.m. in my pajamas and listening to music while we get all the Thanksgiving and Christmas orders ready is really fun.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After seven plus years at McGraw, Lizz is taking her show on the road in her new position as our Assistant Retail Operations Manager.
