I'm a restaurant franchisee with over 25 years of experience in the hospitality industry. Having spent the last 15 years as a multi-unit owner in eastern Washington, I have built solid revenues and increased market share during my tenure as a small business owner. I currently have four locations within Whitman county, with a staff of up to 75 employees. The two original stores, Colfax and Pullman's downtown location, were initially purchased in 2005. The campus and Wal-Mart locations were opened in 2009 and 2010. Some successes I've had as a franchisee include:◆ Doubled revenues from the original purchase of existing stores within three years of ownership◆ Second highest revenue store in the Subway system based on square footage◆ One of the highest catering Subway restaurants in the nation based on revenues◆ Regional franchisee of the year 2010Alongside the four restaurants, I am also the manager of three real estate companies. I manage real estate holdings in Arizona, Idaho, and Washington.
