BGV Family Spotlight
At Breckenridge Grand Vacations, we have a family motto, ‘OneBGV!’ This includes our employees and our owners. The BGV Family Spotlight will let our employees get to know our owners and our owners will have a chance to get to know our employees!
Employee Spotlight
This month’s employee spotlight is Cody Mendoza! Cody is our Digital Marketing Manager and he has been with BGV for a year! Here is a bit about Cody:
- What is your favorite place you have traveled to? – Switzerland! I traveled there in February of 2020 to snowboard at Verbier and Zermatt (home of the Matterhorn). It was an amazing trip, the views were absolutely stunning, the food included lots of pasta and pickled things which I love and it helped a lot that my first day in Verbier it snowed over 2 feet! If you think Breckenridge has a cool apres scene, don’t get me started on how the Swiss like to party post-ski day.
- Favorite thing to do outside of work? – In addition to snowboarding (my absolute favorite thing to do), I love skinning up the resort for some exercise or going on backcountry missions on my splitboard. In the summertime, you can find me either hiking or paddleboarding down the Colorado River. If I am not outside, check the yoga studio, where I am an active practitioner trying to keep my mind and body healthy.
- What made you move to Breckenridge? – Opportunity! I worked for a ski resort in California and knew there was much more room for growth in my career where more winter travel destinations were.
- Favorite part of your job? – I love the family feel that BGV has. Everyone really prioritizes taking care of each other on a personal level. It also helps that we live in such a beautiful destination, it makes it easy to market and get the word out.
- If you could be any superhero, which one would it be? – I would be the Flash. Could you imagine how many activities could be packed into a day if you could be so fast that travel time was non-existent?
- And last, anything else you would like our owners to know about you? – I love working at BGV and work to ensure that our guests are creating smiles by providing them information through our Best Of Breckenridge social channels. Send us a comment or a message and I will definitely respond!
