Inside Kids2

Abby Riley first joined Kids2 as an inventory manager in 2007.  During the few years she was first with the company, she made her mark winning the 2008 Kids2 Atlanta Baking Competition. Now, 13 years, seven moves and three children later she's returned to the company.

At Kids2, we have the opportunity to work with amazingly talented people everyday around the world, and through our Inside Kids2 spotlight stories we feature team members from different departments. In support of Asian-Pacific Islander Heritage month, we interviewed Eylmer Bartolome. Born in the Philippines and raised in New Orleans, Eylmer joined Kids2 in May 2021 as part of the Customer Solutions team. Fun fact: he's proficient in his native language, Tagalog, but when visiting family in Philippines they told him not to speak on public transit…find out why!
