q: What's your favorite part of the job?a: I promote and plan group events for the Italian restaurant at the Walt Disney World Swan. With a large number of small private flexible spaces, we can host a private reception or party with a customized group menu for up to 400 guests.
a: Transforming someone's regular dinner into a "special event" - especially seeing the big events come together.
a: Sitting at a desk, which is so much different than my previous job bartending at Shula's Steakhouse, at the adjacent Walt Disney World Dolphin.
a: Valerie Davis '06 and Taryn Dorsey '07.
a: At the beach, with friends, or bartending at Kitty O'Shea's Irish Pub.
a: Time management.
a: It taught me networking and professionalism.
q: A UCF memory?a: The Rosen campus doesn't have enough "college feel" to it. I transferred from Arizona State and that was a whole different experience.
a: Football games, especially Homecoming.
a: The Crab Macaroni and Cheese at Shula's Steak House.
a: A variety of 80's music and rock.
a: My middle name is D'van. My parents keep coming up with different stories about how they chose this unique name, so I'm still unsure where it came from.
