Amanda Meyer
Restaurant & Bar Manager
What was your first job?
I have worked at Stonebrooke for twenty years, starting as a server, rocking Hawiian pool shirts - classy. And no, I don’t own a set of golf clubs!
What does life look like when you’re not at work?
I am a mom to a very active 7yr old girl. I keep friends and family very close to me. Summer is our jam - heading to the cabin, playing tennis, valleyfair, and a cold beverage never put me in a bad mood ;)
Best part of this gig?
I enjoy establishing relationships and networking with our customers, giving them an overall positive experience for them to return to with their friends and family whether it’s a nice bottle of wine or a pizza for the kiddos. Having a close knit, dedicated team you get to have fun with on a daily basis doesn’t hurt either!
Heidi Kurkowski
Marketing & Events Director
What was your first job?
I assisted at a bridal dress shop - playing dress up after hours was top notch!
Best part of this gig?
Everyone who comes through our doors is there for a good time, which brings the best energy. Wine tasting days don’t suck either…
Best advice you’ve been given?
“Fake it ‘til you make it” is garbage advice. Face it ‘til you make it.
