Victor Lopez joined us at La Zebra last year as a security guard, born in Chiapas from where he set off to look for better opportunities and means to support his parents. His kindness, good performance and eagerness to start a career, gained him the opportunity to be moved to our Storage & Purchase department, where he ensures all areas have what they need to produce a memorable experience.
GUSTAVO
RESTAURANT MANAGER
Meet your ultimate Host, Gustavo Morales, who truly enjoys creating memorable experiences for our guests. He arrived at la Zebra almost 3 years ago, looking for a better job opportunity far away from home. He started as a beach floor manager and after a lot of commitment and hard work, he evolved to become our Restaurant manager. For him the most important aspect of his job is to delight our guests.
