Utah-based Swig, the Home of the Original Dirty Soda, has named Angela Kavanaugh its director of People and Culture. Previously, Kavanaugh oversaw similar departments at software companies, Narvar and Entrata.

"Angela is a coach, a leader, and a difference-maker," Rian McCartan, CEO of Swig, said in a company press release. "As we get ready to expand across the country, we will need her expertise and guidance to make sure Swig's employee culture remains strong and thriving. We're lucky to have her in the Swig family, and I can't wait to work alongside her."

Swig plans to add 25 corporate and 40 franchise stores by year's end.

"My first impression of Swig's culture was the dedicated intention to create a customized and genuine customer connection," Kavanaugh said in the release. "Swig customers seek a moment of delight, which is made possible through an exceptional employee experience and culture. Swig has built a commendable culture, and I'm excited to fine-tune employee development and design scalable systems to support Swig's rapid growth. I genuinely believe in Swig's mission, and I'm honored to be a part of it."
