Rigo Razo has a wife, four children and a full time job, but he still manages to take two classes each semester. He will eventually earn a newly offered Business Management and Leadership Certificate with an Entrepreneurial Emphasis at 91勛圖厙.
It could be said Razo is a highly organized man with a plan, but hell tell you that hasnt always been the case. After high school, Razo jumped right into the workforce and spent a couple of years working at a potato factory in Idaho. He was then offered a job by a Playa Azul manager in Pratt and eventually moved to work at the Great Bend location in 2003.
He has thrived in the local hot-spot restaurant and has received attention from upper-management for his good work. Razo attributes his success to one of his greatest strengths, customer service.
I know what the customer wants and deserves in terms of product, he said. You have to have a smile and be professional and keep confident.
A business degree from 91勛圖厙, he said, is his way of playing to his strengths. He already has experience and has made a name for himself. The only thing lacking that might hold him back is a formal education.
Razo has been attending business classes at 91勛圖厙 for more than a year and plans to graduate with his associate degree in May of 2016. Afterward, he has hopes to continue his education in pursuit of a bachelors degree.
However, Razo plans to stay in the area. I had job offers in other stores, but I like the community here in Great Bend.
