With over 25 years at Five Guys, I've grown from a line-level worker at one of the original shops in Alexandria, Virginia, to the International Director of Operations and Brand Governance. Along the way, I’ve held various roles, including Shift Leader, General Manager, and Corporate Trainer, before advancing to District Manager along the US Eastern Seaboard (Connecticut, Maryland, Outer Banks of North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Upstate New York, Virginia, Washington, DC, and West Virginia), before moving out west to Colorado. I then moved to Amsterdam for two years as an international district manager, supporting operations in Belgium, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Northern Ireland, and Switzerland.Key player in setting up and managing international operations, ensuring smooth expansion and consistent brand standards. From baking the bread to designing the kitchen, this journey has built a deep understanding of every part of the business, from frontline work to strategic leadership.Committed to maintaining Five Guys' high standards while driving growth and innovation in all markets and excited to see Five Guys continue to expand.
