Spotlight on: Christina Ramos, Sous Chef ⭐️

“Christina has been with Culinart for 6 years and worked her way up from dishwasher to Sous Chef.

Her dedication shines through in every dish, a testament to her journey and the vibrant culture she brings to Culinart.

Christina’s influence extends beyond the kitchen; she’s a mentor, a friend, and a true inspiration.

Christina moved here from Puerto Rico as an adult and shares her heritage with all of us.

Christina’s passion for food comes from her family. Her food has very little to no waste, as she shares with us her many sofrito recipes.

She is a strong empowering individual!”

- Jessica Mansfield, Senior Chef Manager ...

Spotlight on: Adriana Beltran, Sous Chef ⭐️

“Adriana is an associate who not only embodies the values & standards of CulinArt, but also allows her Hispanic Heritage to shine & underpin everything she does.

Her attention to detail & mastery of traditional Hispanic flavors & cuisine has spread awareness throughout Archer & quickly made Taco Tuesdays the most anticipated lunch of the week.”

- Meghan Lambert-Jackson, Director of Dining Services ...

Spotlight on: Eliza Cruz, Manager ⭐️

Eliza is a great asset to the CulinArt team. She is always lending a helping hand to anyone who asks.

Whether it’s being asked to set up an event, break down, clean up, serve food, clean dishes - she never says no and is always kind.”

- Emily Stepancic, Catering Operations Manager ...

Spotlight on: Jose Guitierrez, Cook ⭐️

“My staff calls Jose “Machine”, because he keeps running and never breaks down. Jose is always in early to work and in uniform.

This is not an easy task to be on time to our location, as we are located in a remote area of the Bronx, and it takes a combination of trains and buses to get to work.

Secondly, Jose is always willing to work any shifts to cover sick calls or vacations of other staff members.

He always follows directions and company policies, is always willing to help other team members when needed, and he is looked up to by the team, as someone to model their work ethic after.

He is friendly and courteous to all staff and customers and I believe every team should have a “Jose”. He is a great employee, team member, and partner in running our business.”

- Martin Weil, General Manager ...
