"At Chuck E.

"I began working as a game room attendant at the Arlington, Texas Chuck E. Cheese in 2001," said Matt Daniel, senior entertainment manager, original content & character properties at CEC Entertainment. "Soon, I transitioned to entertainment show coordinator and spent four years staging light shows, assisting with the music and video production and learning from some of the best talent in the business. After leaving for a short time, I returned to Chuck E. Cheese because I genuinely loved the brand. It may sound a little cheesy, but every cast member can really say they're getting paid to bring joy to people. When I think about it that way, it becomes more than just a job, it becomes a purpose."

Today, Daniel runs the concepting and production of Chuck E. Cheese original entertainment, including songs, dances and videos. "What I find most rewarding about my career is the opportunity to evolve our iconic characters for a new generation, build a positive emotional connection between Chuck E. Cheese and families everywhere and, of course, continue to feel personally and professionally supported, challenged and empowered," observed Daniel, one of the many tenured store and corporate team members who have started and grown their careers with CEC Entertainment.
