This week’s Employee of the Week is our favorite flower buyer, Jordan Prosser!
Jordan Prosser is the Botanica Flower Buyer and Product Manager. Without Jordan we would have absolutely no events and no way of planning for them! Needless to say, Jordan is irreplaceable. In October, he celebrated his two year anniversary at Botanica.
Jordan loves learning about new and creative floral varieties and wholesalers to purchase the products from. Somehow he manages to put up with working around four women everyday. The conversations we have and his humor, keep us laughing all day! We couldn’t imagine Botanica without him here!
Jordan’s favorite quote truly speaks mounds to his ambitious work ethic:
“You can’t cross the ocean, unless you have the courage to lose sight of the shore.” -Christopher Columbus
Side story you should know: Jordan was moved into his own office because of his loud and distinctive voice. We were no longer able to coop him up with our Creative Director, Zoë Gallina. If you ever get the pleasure of meeting or making friends with Jordy, you will know just what we’re talking about and you might even love him just as much as we do!
