Meet The Team | Dalton Motichek

Christina Mullins • Nov 08, 2023

How is it November, already? The holidays are quickly approaching and the end of 2023 will be here before we know it. It always goes by so fast, doesn’t it? 

 

This month, our Meet the Team article shines the spotlight on Dalton Motichek. He serves as an Accounting Clerk at our corporate office in Baton Rouge. 

 

Dalton was born and raised in Pochatoula, Louisiana. After graduating from Ponchatoula High School in 2016, he attended  and graduated from Southeastern Louisiana University in Hammond. He received his Bachelor of Science in Accounting in May 2021. Lion Up! 

 

Before joining the GRS team in October 2021, he worked as a Game Master at Clue Carre in New Orleans. In case you are unsure of what that is, he was the person behind the screen giving you clues during the escape room. 

 

When he is not working, he is usually at home spending time with my family or playing video games. Most Sundays, you can find him at the Saints game cheering on his team in the Superdome. WHO DAT! He is also currently studying to take the CPA exam. 

Additionally, I asked Dalton what he wanted to be when he grew up. He said, “my dream job when I was a kid was a Doctor or a Veterinarian.” 

 

While I was writing this post, I asked him what he likes about working for Guarantee Restoration Services. He stated, “The thing I love most about GRS is the family-oriented environment and how everyone is always willing to lend a helping hand when needed.” 

 

One other question I always pose is if the spotlight individual has learned anything new recently. He said, “Recently, I learned that Egypt initially had two of the Seven Wonders of the World. However, the Lighthouse of Alexandria has since been destroyed by multiple earthquakes. The only one still standing is the Great Pyramid.” 

 

Lastly, he gave some advice to both our team members and leaders. He responded, “For employees, never be afraid to ask questions and learn more than what you’re hired for. You never know where you will end up in the future. For the leaders, invest time in your employees and show that you’re there for them and help them anytime you see they are down or not performing as well as usual.

Every time I write the May Meet the Team feature, my first instinct is to start it with “It’s gonna be MAY!” Must be the millennial in me to want to begin it with the iconic *NSYNC track. I digress. We are back with this month’s featured employee, Jordan Steib, who serves as the Marketing Manager of GRS. Jordan was born and raised in the South Louisiana city of Thibodaux. After graduating from high school, he attended Nicholls State University before joining the workforce. He was a Lead Administrative Assistant at the Terrebonne ARC for a decade. When he moved to Baton Rouge in 2017, he served in a few administrative and office management positions before joining our GRS team in December 2019. Since arriving at Guarantee Restoration Services, Jordan as served as administrative support for the Business Development and Marketing department and as an Executive Assistant to our CEO, Shawn Folks. In July 2022, he was promoted to Marketing Manager, where he has thrived in planning and filming most of our video content. During his tenure, he has also hired a marketing assistant, which has vastly improved the department’s functionality and capabilities. He has been instrumental in building and expanding our brand awareness. We have also increased the support we can provide our fellow GRS team members. In addition, we have steadily cultivated a better sense of teamwork and community through our company culture engagement activities, such as National Cocoa Day and “Pumpkins and Pies.” Personally, he is the second born of three sons to his parents, Martha and Damian. He is the proud cat father of Bridgette Anne Steib, who turns 3 years old this month. In his spare time, he has recently taken up home wine making and has really enjoyed the (literal) fruits of his labor. He has made wine with strawberries, blackberries, blueberries, cherries and raspberries. His hobbies also include camping, tubing, boating and fishing with friends. Additionally, over the years, he has become quite the home chef and enjoys cooking for himself and having friends over for dinner. He enjoys being creative and decorating for different holidays. Finally, when he can go home to Thibodaux, he enjoys nothing more than spending time with his parents, brothers, sisters-in-law, nephew and nieces.
