Nikita is a student at CU Boulder studying Marketing and Finance at the Leeds School of Business. He is currently a Sales and Marketing Intern at Justin's; it is his first experience in the field. Growing up in Boulder, CO has instilled in Nikita an environmental awareness that drives all his actions.
Liz is a current CU Boulder senior who will graduate in May with a degree in Anthropology. This is her first experience interning for a local, natural food company like Justin's. Growing up with a nutritionist as a mom, Liz has developed a passion for healthy eating and cooking. She is excited to learn the ins and outs of a start-up company like Justin's, especially as it relates to sales and marketing. Hopefully she can use this knowledge and experience when she enters the dreaded real world in May. Liz can't wait for the new chocolate flavors to come out this fall so that she can satisfy her rampant sweet tooth without being too unhealthy.
Julia graduated with a BA in Business Management at Antioch University. She has traveled the world and continues to find new and exciting places to explore. She moved from California a year ago and has enjoyed the changing seasons that Colorado has to offer. While working at Whole Foods she fell in love with Justin's Nut Butter and loves having the opportunity to intern for a company she believes in. She hopes to one day own her own business.
Courtney is a senior at the University of Colorado-Boulder and will be graduating in May 2010 with a BA in Marketing. Interning at Justin's is providing her with an amazing opportunity to see what it takes for a small business to grow and succeed. She feels honored to be a contributing part of such a health conscious and friendly workplace. Courtney has always loved peanut butter and just when she thought she couldn't love it any more she found Justin's. The best nut butter she has ever tasted! Each week she is excited to contribute to the Justin's Team, getting hands on experience with sales and marketing challenges. Marketing is her passion as she hopes to invent, design, market and sell her own products some day.
