The Zerocater company value award for November is one of our best—and well known—values: Be a beast. Being a beast is about pushing through every obstacle all while having a smile on your face. Being a beast is something that cannot be taught; some individuals have an incredible drive to produce the highest quality of work, never taking no for an answer. Lizette is a true beast, moving to remote offices to help launch the Zerocater in new cities. We are excited to see more of her beastly spirit in the months to come.
Name: Lizette
Hometown: Chicago
Job Title: Project Coordinator
What that means that I do every day: Support Zerocater operations in our current locations and as we expand to new markets by finding ways to efficiently and smartly grow.
Favorite food: My simple and guilty pleasure – grilled cheese.
Favorite cocktail: A good, mellow whiskey with one large ice cube.
My favorite thing about lunch: Getting a chance to try something new everyday.
Favorite restaurant: Mott St. in Chicago surprises me every time with their always changing Asian fusion menu.
My most memorable dining experience of all time is: Doing all day barbecues with my friends. We would get up early to go to Paulina Meat Market and cook everything we bought in a smoker all day. During the day-long process, we would play cards, drink, and slowly make the rest of the meal and snack until everyone arrived for dinner.
My dream celebrity dinner date: Alton Brown just so he could educate me on everything we would eat.
Why I love Zerocater: Our work supports local businesses and entrepreneurs. I love hearing stories from our vendors of how they increased their revenue, improved their menus, or when they were highlighted in the media because of working with Zerocater.
