I had the opportunity to develop and oversee restaurant concepts at various stages of their life cycles: emerging brands, turnaround and high-growth businesses, and acquisitions by competitors or private equity companies.As Regional Operations Executive of Chili’s Bar & Grill, I balanced people management with operational grit (business, finance, and corporate strategy) to revitalize performance in the company’s most challenging regions.• Transformed the culture from paring down labor to driving up sales.• Ranked #1 in brand KPIs within 12 months following promotion to multi-unit position in 2003, and ranked #1 again in 2010 when promoted to regional leadership position.• Instrumental as ideation leader for $5M in additional sales across the 981-restaurant enterprise by developing, testing, and launching the Incremental Sales Taskforce.• Consistently achieved top 3% actual vs. theoretical gap variance through brand coaching and implementing COS strategies.• Reduced manager turnover 12% in first year after assuming leadership of underperforming region.• Placed #1 in brand EcoSure inspections.In addition, I was a road warrior in my first year as multi-state Operations Executive: I visited all acquired stores (100 restaurants) within seven months.

In 2003, I was promoted to multi-unit director in California, and in 2005, I advanced to oversee (and overhaul) the struggling Denver market.
