"I started with Cheddar's as a server. After a bad car accident, I had some physical limitations, but my Cheddar's family didn't give up on me. They moved me into the Host role first, and now I've recently been promoted to Service Training Lead. I am so grateful and blessed for all this brand has done for me."
