Meet Our Team: A Q&A with Cait Dunn
Cait Dunn, a seasoned professional with a diverse background in communications, business, Spanish, fitness health, and more, has taken up the role of Marketing Manager at Gardenuity. She joined the team in January of 2019 and has since been instrumental in driving the company's growth.
Dunn's primary focus is on bringing new ideas to the table, aiming to help the company expand by sharing the Gardenuity product with others through learning and shared experiences. Her passion for gardening, which she shares with her two boys, has become a powerful tool in this mission.
In a recent initiative, Dunn, along with Marketing Coordinator Caroline Kushner, launched the "Gardenuity's Favorite Finds Giveaway". This virtual shopping solution is designed to serve as a perfect holiday gift this season.
Dunn's belief in the power of gardening extends beyond her personal life. She advocates for the integration of company gardens in businesses and organizations, arguing that such a move would significantly benefit these entities. Her vision is to see Gardenuity gardens on every porch and balcony across the country.
Dunn's journey to corporate marketing is not without its twists and turns. After graduating from university, she got her personal training certification from the National Academy of Sports Medicine. However, the specifics of her transition from fitness and health to her current role at Gardenuity are not entirely clear. Generally, such transitions involve identifying transferable skills, networking, updating education and training, tailoring resumes, and preparing for interviews.
Gardening has had a profound impact on Dunn's mental health and physical wellbeing. Since joining Gardenuity, she spends time in her garden every day. This practice, she believes, allows her to have a larger capacity to give to others. She also emphasizes the importance of taking time for oneself, setting aside 30 minutes every day for personal activity.
Dunn's work at Gardenuity has not only been about promoting the company but also about fostering community. She was instrumental in originating and helping turn the first-ever gardening workshop for the North Dallas Early Childhood PTA into a lasting and imperative part of Gardenuity's community outreach.
Moreover, gardening has become an integral part of several organizations' company culture after corporate garden workshops led by Dunn. The positive impact of these workshops is evident, as they have helped foster a sense of camaraderie and well-being among employees.
The "Gardenuity's Favorite Finds Giveaway" runs from December 4th through December 9th. Dunn's hope is that, as people experience the Gardenuity lifestyle, they will fall in love with it just as she has.
