Meet Our Staff!
Aubrie
Hello! I’ve been working at the Hearty Olive since December of 2023. I chose to work here because I already loved trying a whole bunch of foods with interesting and complex flavors– hence my favorite balsamics being Cucumber Melon and Cinnamon Pear! As for our finest oils, my favorites are definitely Basil, Pesto and Toasted sesame.
When I’m not working Tuesdays and Wednesdays at The Hearty Olive, I’m working on my illustration business, Purple Kitten Studios! My main subjects of my work are animals, fantasy creatures, and anime/video game characters!
In my free time, I love going for nature hikes, trying out new snacks, watching animated films, and going to collectible stores with friends! My favorite things to collect are stuffed animals and cozy sweaters. Cats have always been my favorite animals.
I’m excited for you to swing by The Hearty Olive! We’ll have a good chat, and I’ll make sure to get you hooked on the Cucumber Melon Balsamic :)
Grace
Hello! My name is Grace, and I’ve been working at The Hearty Olive since we opened. This is my first job, and I couldn’t ask for anything better! My managers and coworkers are all incredible people, and I’m very lucky to be able to work with them. I love trying all of our olive oils and balsamic vinegars! My favorite olive oil is Basil, and my favorite balsamic vinegar is Cinnamon Pear.
In my free time, I love to read, listen to music, hang out with my family, and watch movies with my dog. I also play trombone, and I absolutely love playing music!
Emma
Hi my name is Emma, I’ve been working at hearty Olive since October 2023. The hearty Olive is a very welcoming place that I have learned to love. Through out working at the hearty Olive I’ve learned many different life skills from communicating better with people, to working the register, and much more! I don’t just use the knowledge I learned from work at work but also at home. I enjoy cooking a lot and using our Olive oils and balsamic vinegars. They have really elevated the flavors in my cooking. I personally really like the wild raspberry balsamic vinegar for a salad dressing and the Tuscan Herb olive oil for cooking!
On the days that I am not working I am either playing sports like softball and volleyball or hanging out with friends! I also enjoy snowboarding in the winters and boating in the summer. I love the hearty Olive because they are very understanding of my busy schedule.
I could not ask for a better place to work. I love getting to know different people when they stop by. I hope one of these days it’ll be you!
Mashayla
Hi my name is Mashayla and I have been working at Hearty Olive since April 2024. I love working at Hearty Olive and talking to everyone who comes in! I have been enjoying learning new things about olive oils and balsamic vinegars! My favorite so far is the White Raspberry Balsamic Vinegar. In my free time I love playing piano, baking, or going out and having fun with friends doing whatever we can think of!
Sawyer
HI! My name is Sawyer, I have been working at the Hearty Olive since November. Working here has been a great experience from having great coworkers and managers to trying all the spontaneous and delicious vinegars. This job has given me many life skills and every person I work with has made my experience here so much better. I love making connections with customers and showing them all my favorite flavors of vinegar (specifically the wild raspberry)!
