👋 Meet Field Leader Jhonson Morillo! He supports restaurants across Westchester County, NY, and has been with Chipotle since 2008, helping us deliver excellent guest experiences for more than a decade. 📊 As a Field Leader, Jhonson aims to build a strong leadership pipeline, fostering a people-centric culture that reflects Chipotle’s purpose and values and drives operational integrity across our restaurants. He champions food safety and quality through regular visits and audits, and partners with General Managers to leverage their strengths and achieve business objectives. ⚓ Before joining Chipotle, Jhonson served in the U.S. Navy. Initially, he was set to join the NYPD, and while he awaited police training, he was hired at Chipotle as a crew member. One day, Chipotle's founder Steve Ells visited the restaurant and spoke with the entire team, including Jhonson. During their conversation, Steve’s vision resonated with Jhonson so much that he decided to pursue a career at Chipotle instead of becoming a police officer. Since then, Jhonson has been validated as a Kitchen Leader, advanced from Service Leader to Apprentice GM to General Manager and now serves as a Field Leader. ✍ Jhonson appreciates Chipotle’s strong people culture and believes that it is the foundation of our success. His advice is to truly listen and show empathy. When teams feel valued and empowered, authenticity flourishes and performance follows. Thank you Jhonson for all that you do!

We’re honored to celebrate Oli Fasone-Lancaster who was surprised on October 17 at the Oregon Health & Science University (OHSU) Doernbecher Freestyle auction in Portland with custom Nike Air Force 1s inspired by his love of Chipotle—complete with burrito bowl packaging and a Chipotle VIP card. His go-to order is featured on a tag inside the shoes, alongside other personalized design elements. Oli’s story is one of resilience. He was diagnosed with cancer when he was in kindergarten, which required long hospital stays and five rounds of chemotherapy. When the cancer came back in 2024, Oli underwent a bone marrow transplant to help him grow more healthy blood cells and overcome his cancer relapse. He now celebrates a second birthday in August in recognition of the day he was given this life-saving procedure. Oli’s cancer treatment was a lengthy process that left him feeling overwhelmed, so like the true foodie that he is, Oli decided to replace the complex names of his medications with the names of his favorite foods and even made posters to help his nurses keep track of it all. It became tradition for Oli to celebrate the end of a treatment with his favorite meal from Chipotle. Earlier this year, Oli was selected for Doernbecher Freestyle, a partnership between Nike and OHSU Doernbecher Children’s Hospital that gives six patients the opportunity to design Nike footwear that are sold at retail to benefit the hospital as a signature fundraiser. See more info on Oli’s shoe in the Doernbecher Freestyle 21 collection here: https://lnkd.in/gRyQA4Ke. From November 17 through December 2, 2025, guests using the Chipotle app and Chipotle.com can round up their order total to the next highest dollar amount to support the life-saving services of OHSU Doernbecher Children’s Hospital. In addition, we’ve made a donation to the hospital to help cover care for patients in need, support specialized treatments unavailable elsewhere in the region and advance pioneering research that benefits kids worldwide.

👋 Meet Krista McMullen, Senior Manager, Menu & OPS Integration!
