EMPLOYEE PROFILE


Meet Samantha Harrington

If variety is the spice of life then Samantha is definitely in her element. Samantha is one of four special event coordinators at Checkers and her job begins when she receives initial information from a customer who is planning a wedding, party or other special event – and each one is entirely unique. Her job functions involve working with the customer to create the menu, assisting with any rental needs such as linens, tables or cabanas, and coordinating every last detail for the event. She will assist in setting up the event and sometimes will even work at the event.

“I especially love this job,” says Samantha, “because I get to help people plan their special occasions. It’s particularly exciting for me to be at the event and see all of the planning and hard work come together to make a memorable experience for the customer.”

As you may suspect from this type of work, Samantha is extremely efficient and organized. In fact, she states that her biggest pet peeve is sloppiness. She is known by her co-workers as a top notch customer service advocate who is relentless in helping customers make anything possible.

Samantha was born and raised in California and was recently married to her husband Scott. They both enjoy a variety of outdoor activities and some of her favorite hobbies include snowboarding, dirt bike riding and camping. To put it in her words “When I am on my time I like to be outdoors, having fun and living the good life!”
