BGV Family Spotlight

Employee Spotlight

This month’s employee spotlight is Emily Kimmel! Emily has worked for BGV for six years now. Here is a little bit more about Emily:

  • What is your role with BGV?: Sustainability and Recycling Manager
  • Favorite part of your job?: I love being able to go from property to property, getting to know all of my coworkers. I enjoy educating new employees on our sustainability practices weekly at BGVO. I like doing research and finding creative ways to be more sustainable as a company. I also like hearing from our owners and guests and finding new ways to engage them in sustainability.
  • What is your favorite place you have traveled to?: I’ve traveled to a lot of amazing places, but I think I enjoyed Vietnam the most! It had so much to offer, from beaches to mountains, and incredibly interesting culture. The places I got to visit were gorgeous and remote. I loved the dramatic landscape, the steep terraces, the vibrant flowers, and the incredibly kind people.
  • Favorite thing to do outside of work?: There is no shortage of things to do here in Summit County. I really enjoy skiing, biking. hiking, camping, and anything outdoors with my pups. Having friends join me on these adventures is always a plus!
  • What made you move to Breckenridge?: I grew up in the mountains of North Carolina where the skiing is much different so believe it or not, I didn’t move here for the skiing originally. But I did move here to enjoy the outdoorsy lifestyle and the skiing has certainly helped keep me here season after season.
  • And last, anything else you would like our owners to know about you?: I studied Sustainable Development in school, so when I started at the Front Desk with BGV, I knew I wanted to land a Sustainability job sooner or later! Making a difference in this community and ensuring our future generations will be able to live and play here like we do now is a passion of mine, which is why I’m so dedicated to my role.
