Annie Scalise, Director of Talent Programs at Great Wolf Lodge
Annie Scalise has been a Chicago girl her entire life, and she moved to Denver in 2021. She leaned into a career as a HR professional early, but in an exploratory way.
Through job-hopping, she’s explored different HR specialties and has worked in several industries. She didn't think she could top her job working for the Chicago Cubs (and has a World Series ring) or working for Sartori Cheese (free cheese), but those jobs got her to where she is today.
She currently works for Great Wolf Lodge's corporate HR team, and is in charge of building programs to advance young professionals in their career. Her role is vital in ensuring the company attracts and retains top talent while developing and growing its existing workforce. Her passion is people and she’s so happy to be able to make an impact for such a fun company dedicated to investing in its people!
