Taking a moment to recognize these two beautiful humans graduating this evening from Apollo Ridge High School.
Olivia came aboard the coffee spot last summer and has truly been such a ray of sunshine and is just so incredibly kind and pleasant. She takes great pride in her work at the drive-thru and truly puts her whole heart into it.
Olivia has been recognized throughout her high school years for many accolades and accomplishments. Most recently, she was named Woman of the Year at Apollo Ridge, and she is the valedictorian of her graduating class. She has such a bright future ahead, and I can't wait to see it all unfold.
Gabriel. Gabe. Where do I start? An equally remarkable human with talent and personality that will surely carry him through the greatest adventures he has yet to experience.
Gabe was all business when it came to learning all about espresso - he showed up for training with a notebook and a pencil ready to master the art of pulling a shot of espresso. He embraced it wholeheartedly. I could see it in his technique, and I thought, "This kid is going to put me out of business!" ππ©΅π
Gabe has been recognized for his academic achievements and his mark in the world of drama and music- stealing the show with his acting and musical abilities in many arenas. Not surprising at all, Gabe was named Man of the Year at Apollo Ridge.
These accolades are not what truly define Olivia and Gabe. Who they are as human beings is what deserves the spotlight. Olivia and Gabe are the purest examples of humility and kindness. These are the characteristics that will shape the marks they will make in this world. I can't wait to see what they accomplish!
If you see these two, please wish them the very best - they deserve it!
