Give it up for Keith P. (pictured right), who’s been taking his work to the next level of late in his job at the Philadelphia Zoo!

Much of Keith’s work happens behind the scenes, but everyone in the know knows its Keith and his team who really help make the zoo run smoothly. He’s on the utility team, and spends much of his days keeping the zoo’s dining and public gathering spaces looking crisp and clean and ready for visitors.

Keith’s in his second year at the zoo, and in this busy season has impressed his managers and coworkers alike by his hard work, eagerness to learn, and all the ways he continues to improve. He’s become increasingly independent on his shifts, mastering both the zoo’s layout and his roster of responsibilities at the different attractions and dining areas.

We are so proud to see Keith make the leap to the next level in his second year at the zoo, and grateful to our own Katrina Shuptar for sharing this fab picture of Keith taking a moment to celebrate. Keep up the great work!
