Off the Clock:
When he's not working, David enjoys playing and listening
to music. " I have perfect pitch. I can hear a musical note
and tell you exactly which one it is from the sound. " He
also enjoys woodworking, exercise and fitness, drone
cinematography, and working on home renovation projects.
Fast Learner:
David learned how to skate and completed a winter
triathlon, with skating, skiing, and running, in the span of
three months.

articles creating reliable and practical content that the
company's grower customers can rely on.
* Studied for and passed the California Pest Control Adviser exams
earlier this year, obtaining her PCA license so she can give
pesticide application advice in California.
A Hard-Earned Degree:
Erica earned her MS degree
from Cornell University with Neil
Mattson's oversight. " Pursuing a
master's while conducting several
research projects was a test of
endurance, one that I am proud to
have made it through. "
Pool Shark?
Before COVID, Erica played pool
competitively. " I love it! Men and
women have an equal advantage
at the pool table. It can be an
intellectually engaging game when
played with the right mindset. "
Mandie Hoidas

VAUGHAN'S HORTICULTURE

John Hyslip
OPERATIONS MANAGER

* Obtained her Certified Supply Chain
Professional certificate, which " really
tested how well I could transition
back into 'student' mode during my
evenings and weekends. "
* In her first year with the company,

more than doubled the customer
service department, to align with the
growth strategy for the company.
She Can Stretch a Dollar:
" I've recently gotten into the
phenomenon of, I'll call it, semiextreme
digital couponing for household
products. " It allows her to donate items that she
pays little to nothing for to a local church.
She's a Voracious Reader:
Reading has always been a huge passion of
Mandie's. In 2021, she wanted to read at least 200
books. She read 203! " The library is a dear friend! "

Expansion Project, opening two new distribution facilities in
Denver, Colorado, and Salem, Oregon, including outfitting
both facilities with the necessary sales, operational, and
management team members.
* John is an integral part of managing the company's entire
production flow of supplies and products to ensure that
customers/growers receive their supplies.
Book That Makes Him Think:
" The Psychopath Test " by Jon Ronson.
" It is a stark contrast to how Griffin
operates, and quite extreme, but I've
always enjoyed learning about all
different types of business practices
and the psychology of the human
mind. "
Quick with a Quiche:
John says one of his hidden talents is
" the ability to cook the best-tasting
quiche, with homemade tart, in the
country! "
