🥂 Let's raise a glass to our superstar Banquet Coordinator, Courtney Fowler!
Born and raised in Alaska, Courtney has been a valued part of our team since 2014. She began her journey as a hostess at ORSO and, through her hard work and dedication, advanced to Supervisor before stepping into her current role as Banquet Coordinator for both Glacier BrewHouse and ORSO.
In her role, Courtney is passionate about creating seamless, memorable experiences for every guest. She takes pride in building lasting relationships with clients and goes above and beyond to make every event easy, enjoyable, and unforgettable.
When she's not coordinating incredible events, Courtney enjoys making the most of Alaska's outdoors. You'll often find her snowboarding, golfing, playing softball with friends, or exploring local trails with her dog, Oddie.
Today, we're celebrating Courtney and thanking her for 12 amazing years of hard work, innovation, dedication, and the positive impact she makes on our team every single day.
Here's to you, Courtney - we're grateful to have you on our team! 🎉

"Had a wonderful anniversary dinner tonight at Orso. The food was delicious, and our service with Matija was amazing. He had great recommendations that turned out beautifully, and he was very friendly without being intrusive. The atmosphere was warm and social, but still sophisticated... All in all a great experience. Highly recommend!"
