Congratulations to October 2011 HERO Award winner Maritza L.! Maritza is a part of our PEACE team and she's a huge part of all our Zappos Culture events and just an overall great Zapponian.

Here’s what a nominee said about Maritza:

If humble had a name, it would be Maritza. She has been integral to the Zappos culture that we all love so much and she graciously welcomed me as a teammate. You would never know that she is involved with some of the biggest and best culture events here on campus because she gives credit to the team that constantly inspires her. She is so hardwired with Zappos culture, she can take a small idea from a Zapponian and turn it into a successful event! Thank you!

The Zappos Family HERO Award is given to well-deserving nominees monthly to recognize them for all their hard work and overall awesomeness.

The recipient gets a special HERO cape, a HERO pin, a $150 Zappos gift card and the best part of all...a parade thrown just for them!

Congrats Maritza!
