#DardenDigest: Raising a Family and a Career
March is Women’s History Month, an annual celebration of the contributions of women to history and society. At Darden, we love to celebrate all the unique people who make our company what it is today. Today we feature Jenny Hanson, who has been with Darden for more than 15 years.
More than 15 years ago, I started with Darden as a server at Olive Garden and immediately fell in love with the restaurant industry. I loved the fast-paced environment and the social aspect from the camaraderie within my restaurant to being able to interact with guests. I was still in college at the time, so having a job as a server offered me a lot of flexibility to work while going to classes.
