Carolin Torres

I’m the kind of person who thrives in a fast-paced, team-oriented environment. I’ve worked my way up to Team Manager at Panera Bread, where I’ve learned how to lead a team, handle high-pressure situations, and create an atmosphere where both employees and customers feel welcome. I don’t just clock in and do the job—I take pride in making sure everything runs smoothly, the team is motivated, and the vibe stays positive.

I’m a firm believer that a great leader sets the tone. Whether it’s keeping the energy up during a rush, stepping in to solve problems before they even become problems, or making sure new employees feel confident and supported, I love being the person people can count on. I know that when the team is happy and working well together, everything else falls into place.

Beyond the day-to-day operations, I also understand the bigger picture—hitting sales goals, managing labor, controlling costs, and keeping customers coming back. I see every shift as an opportunity to make things better, whether that’s improving efficiency, coaching team members, or finding new ways to boost performance.

At the core, I’m just someone who loves working with people, solving challenges, and creating a great experience for both customers and employees. I’m always looking for ways to grow, take on new responsibilities, and make a real impact. Whether it’s as an Assistant Manager or Store Manager, I’m ready to bring my leadership, energy, and problem-solving skills to the next level.

Let’s build something great—one shift at a time!
