Labbe's story in her own words.
WHY DID YOU EMBARK ON A CAREER
IN FOOD SERVICE AS A CDM, CFPP?
After research and finding my passion, it was a perfect
fit and no brainer. I love to help residents and I love to
make sure that they get the nutritious meals that they
need.
WHAT ANFP TOOLS HAVE HELPED
YOU GET ACCLIMATED IN YOUR
CAREER?
The tools that helped me a lot were the Edge magazine,
because it keeps you up to date on all the knowledge
that you need as a CDM, CFPP. Also, I would personally
say the ACE meeting; you get to collaborate with
different CDM, CFPPs, different minds from different
backgrounds, and it's just a great time to ask questions
and pick the brains of some of the best of the best.
WHAT ARE YOU MOST LOOKING
FORWARD TO IN YOUR NEW CAREER?
I look forward to mostly being able to mentor. I hope in
the next maybe seven to 10 years, that I'm able to take
one of the cooks in my kitchen and show them that a
CDM, CFPP is one of the great careers to follow and to
look into. So, I hope to be able to be a mentor and see
where that goes.
WHAT ADVICE WOULD YOU GIVE
TO OTHER YOUNG PROFESSIONALS
OR THOSE SEARCHING TO BUILD A
NEW CAREER IN THE FOODSERVICE
INDUSTRY?
I would honestly say ask lots of questions. Have your
pen and paper, have your notes and your phone ready.
Don't be afraid to ask questions. Being in the kitchen
is tough enough. Being a supervisor is tough enough.
You want to be able to have as much knowledge as
possible. Talk to your administrator. Former CDM,
CFPPs, retired CDM, CFPPs, new CDM, CFPPs-it's
really important to get as much knowledge as possible
from them. And if you can get a mentor, that's great.
Finding a CDM, CFPP who's been in this business at
least 10-15 years that can help you and show you and
see different ideas, I think that would be perfect.
That's especially important if you're looking at the
path of becoming a CDM, CFPP.
CAREER CDM, CFPP
Each CDM, CFPP has unique stories of entering
food service, highlighted in this feature. For new
CDMs, CFPPs (under five years) to be featured,
