Episode 1: Who is Gator?

Her name may be Cori, but most know her as…Gator. Gator is one of the employees at Troy’s, the food truck on Anderson University’s campus. I met Cori at the truck, as I would get Troy’s almost every Tuesday. I saw how she was always kind and patient with others, and to student’s, she wasn't just, “that employee who serves me my meal,” but someone they knew by name. In this episode, I got to learn about Cori’s upbringing in Southern Louisiana along with how, in her family, a nickname wasn’t something you got because it sounds nice, but it is something you earned. Through a passionate telling of the story, I learned just how Cori earned hers.
