The year is flying by! May 1st has already arrived, and we, Floridians, are soaking up the last of the “cooler” weather before the 100+ degree heat moves in for the summer. Yikes. While the heat is a little daunting, the latest focus of the Joe Taylor Restoration (JTR) Employee Spotlight is far from it. He is kind and helpful and has been with JTR for 7 years- meet, Rafael DaRosa.
Rafael is the Assistant Branch Manager in JTR’s Tampa Office, and he says that his favorite aspects of his job are “helping to solve problems, facilitating learning, and making processes more efficient- contributing in a way that improves outcomes.”
His favorite thing about JTR “is the company culture, the team, and the growth opportunities.”
For his Employee Spotlight- Tampa Office, Rafael chose three topics about which to share: Favorite Destination, Hobbies/ Interests, and Likes/ Dislikes about Florida.
Favorite Destination
My favorite destination is Brazil- being next to my family, seeing the vibrant culture, landscapes, and beaches, and spending quality time with loved ones. It’s great to have a place that you always call home.
Hobbies/ Interests
My hobbies are going to the gym and practicing Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. I’m also interested in participating in a very long marathon.
Likes/ Dislikes about Florida
Likes: Beautiful beaches, great weather, cultural diversity, and NO state tax. Dislikes: Traffic, and those extremely hot and humid days.
Exactly. We completely agree with Rafael- those extremely hot and humid Florida days can be downright brutal. So can a property disaster for that matter. That’s why we’re so thankful for team members like Rafael who can put customers’ minds at ease and ensure that every job gets done with the utmost professionalism, care, and expertise.
