Michelle Braaten

Proudly Serving: Sobeys #5038, Stonebridge, SK

Position: Wellbeing Counselor

Core Value: Always Place the Customer First

As a wellbeing counselor, Michelle is all about bringing the extras to the table. On top of delivering high standards to the department she manages, she takes on extra duties like teaching classes to the public, being the go-to champion for most of the campaigns throughout the year, and loves interacting with the customers about health and wellness. Michelle is inspired to bring extra effort to the job because she works in the first Sobeys Extra in Saskatchewan. “I’ve been blown away with the new concept supporting food, health and wellness and a company willing to provide these initiatives to their customers,” she says. “I’m most proud of our team and how we work together to make these opportunities successful.” She loves working on projects that give back to the community, like cooking at Ronald McDonald House, raising money for the Saskatoon Food Bank, and attending events on the store’s behalf.
