Giana Evans

As students walk into the Coronado Café, one worker that always has a smile on her face, and brightens up everyone’s day.

This worker is Giana Evans. She is unique, and you will most likely observe her making personal pizzas and special request orders for various students in Coronado Café.

Evans loves her job and said she is passionate about what she does.

“When you go to work, be happy and be positive,” Evans said.
Evans interacts with students and makes Coronado Café a place where students can enjoy a break from classes, she said.

“It rubs off on people, and some people have a bad day until they see me,” she said.

Evans’s said her favorite part of working at Coronado Café is the students, and giving them a positive environment.

“Nobody wants to come into a place where they need to eat and everyone is grumpy,” Evans said.

Evans was raised to always be positive, she said. Evans’s role model, who is her father, always told her to be positive, she said.

“My dad passed away junior year of college, and I was determined to finish college for him,” Evans said.

The hard work paid off. Evans graduated from Northwestern Oklahoma State University in 2015 with a bachelor’s degree in psychology.

Evans said she is passionate about her kids.

One thing people would not know about Evans is how multicultural she is, she said.

“People wouldn’t know how many races I am,” she said. “I’m very diverse.”

“My parents are from the opposite ends of America,” she said. “My Mom is from Hawaii, and my Dad is from New York.”

Evans will continue to always care for others.

“I care too much, even whenever I shouldn’t,” she said.
