Meet Our Events Coordinator...



Name: Jordan Nyberg

Role at Foodshare:  Events Coordinator – I oversee our Walk Against Hunger, help with outside events and also coordinate our Turkey & 30 Drive in November.

How long have you been with Foodshare?  6 months

Hobbies:  Traveling with my Husband, Baking/Cooking, Indoor Cycling

Why I do what I do (at Foodshare):  Working at Foodshare allows me to combine my love of event planning and helping others at the same time.  I couldn’t ask for more out of a job.

Most recent accomplishment:  Participating in the 6th Annual Charity Cycling Challenge – an 8-hour indoor cycling marathon to raise money for charity.  Of course, I donated to Foodshare!
 
A personal/professional goal: Along with my love of event planning, I am also a bit of a politics nerd…I would love to someday serve as the White House Social Secretary (the event planner for the White House), even if it is just for one term.

Last read:  “All the Presidents' Pastries: Twenty-Five Years in the White House, A Memoir” by Roland Mesnier
  
If you could be, or do, anything else – what would it be?  If I had tons of money, I would be the eternal student.  I’d take college-level classes on anything and everything that interests me, just for fun.

What are you most proud of?  Exceeding our goals at this year’s Walk Against Hunger (with only 90 days under my belt)!

Share something about yourself that few people know:  I am a certified pastry chef.

What would I find in your refrigerator right now? My husband and I went to the farmer’s market this weekend, so I have some great stuff in there right now - yellow watermelon, fresh carrots, cucumbers, skate wing and of course bacon!

If Hollywood made a movie about your life, what actor would you like to see play the role of you? Kate Winslet

If you found out you only had a few months to live, what would you do with the time?  Travel with my husband.
