Energy Drink of the Month -- October 2014

Food Scientists, Quality professionals and those in marketing (“Marketeers”) don’t always see eye to eye. As the Green-Eyed Guide, my goal is to challenge myself and others to expand perspectives, to try to see a situation from another’s eyes. Thus, for this month’s energy drink pick, I wanted to provide my interpretation of how three different professionals in the food industry would see the same product.

The Energy Drink of the Month for October 2014 is Rockstar Roasted with Almond Milk

 Ever since my first exposure to energy drinks (back in 2003), I wanted others to see what I saw, wanted them to know the tips and tricks I know when it comes to reading labels and deciphering the contents of an energy drink. In place of my usual written review for the Energy Drink of the Month, I present this review:

I am Beachbody - employee recognition

As the chosen "I am Beachbody" employee for October 2014, I had to make a video explaining who I am and what I do. This employee recognition is a great idea for a company as big and as rapidly expanding as Beachbody. I'm honored to be nominated, however, I knew I had to make the video a little exciting than the typical 1 minute speech in front of your workspace.

Since I had so much fun making this video, I will share it with the world!

For your viewing pleasure, in case you'd like to be a Food Scientist or Quality Specialist, or just want to know what I do for ~10 hours a day.

I am Beachbody - Who I am and What I Do

I know it's not Jenna Marbles quality, but it's my first video. It's imperfect and it's got character, like myself.

Enjoy!
