“Irvine has been my favorite place I have ever worked. My co-workers are incredibly hardworking, helpful, and dedicated to our mission.  My supervisors are always supportive, very understanding, and provide great opportunities. It has been absolutely inspiring to see how our team manages to work together with so many moving pieces to make all our different programs happen. Plus, Irvine is just an awesome place in general. I love coming to work at such a beautiful location each day. I have been at Irvine for a year and a half, and I’m looking forward to many more years to come.” -Jensen Hufnagel, Office Manager
