Meet Shannon Graham, an Aquatics Leader I in our Parks & Recreation Department. She has worked for the City of Tampa for over two years. Her management team praises her motivational skills and positivity, saying the following: “Her positive attitude shines through in everything she does, whether she's teaching swim lessons or leading Aqua Fitness classes. Her swim lessons are particularly outstanding, as she brings both expertise and enthusiasm to the pool, making learning enjoyable and effective for her students. Her Aqua Fitness students absolutely adore her, often praising her for her motivating energy and the personalized attention she provides during each session. Shannon's dedication and positivity have made her a cherished part of the Bobby Hicks Pool community.”   What's one of the craziest days you’ve had on job? Prepping the pool for the hurricane. I would say this was one of the most impactful days to me on this job. It was the day I realized I am part of something much bigger than me. That day we prepared the pool for the hurricane and then got to go fill sandbags for the community. I felt so proud to be able to serve my community in such a way. Community means everything to me, and this job has given me my community and so much more. What’s your favorite restaurant in Tampa? Interbay Meat Market, because their food is very good but also because they have the friendliest, most welcoming staff. It’s the friendliest bodega you will experience. What reality show would you want to be on? The Amazing Race, so I could see the world. What do you like to do in your free time? Go to the beach with my family. What are you binging on Netflix right now? Vikings. #EmployeeAppreciation #TampaJobs #ParksandRecreation
