Learn more about McKenna and her time at Arborwear:

Q: What drew you to Arborwear originally?

A: The vibrancy of the company culture and endless creativity promoted throughout the brand.

Q: What is your favorite Arborwear memory?

A: Operating one of the overhead cranes and getting a tour of the new location.

Q: What has been your favorite project so far?

A: My favorite project so far has been developing surveys to gain customer feedback in different areas of the company. I can't wait to implement and analyze it all!

Q: What is the best career lesson/advice you’ve learned so far?

A: The level of coordination, communication and collaboration required between departments is so much more involved than I previously thought. It has been interesting seeing collaboration occur on all levels between departments, not just on a director level. 

Q: What do you like to do outside of Arborwear?

A: Outside of Arborwear I really enjoy going to concerts. Before COVID I went to about 1-2 concerts a month and I am missing it very much. 

Q: If you could meet anyone in the world, dead or alive, who would it be and why?

A: I would probably have to go with Hayley Williams, the lead singer of Paramore. Aside from her music being some of my absolute favorites, and her voice being stunning, she is such a powerful and inspiring woman who stands up for herself and everything she believes in. Seeing her live in concert was a dream and hearing her spread such kind words to her audience and online has just always drawn me to want to be friends with her, but I would settle for meeting her!

Q: What’s a fun fact about you many people may not know?

A: I have been to over 50 concerts in the past 3 years, 28 of which were in 2018 alone.

Q: What are 3 words to describe you?

A: Creative, Ambitious, Conscientious
