President
CurrentCrave Management Group is a multi-brand, multi-state restaurant operator serving customers the great tasting foods they crave, Taco Bell and Bobby's Burgers by Bobby Flay. We have been operating Taco Bells in Western Montana for over 20 years and are excited to launch our newest brand, Bobby's Burgers, in the Utah market. Bobby's Burgers by Bobby Flay:As a co-owner in our Charlotte (flagship) location, let me tell you, there is a lot to be excited about. We couldn't be more proud and honored to represent Bobby's Burgers by Bobby Flay in the state of Utah. The food has that "crave" factor that I can't wait to share with our customers and the leadership team has a cohesiveness and a culture that make you want to be a part of this special journey! This is only the first step in what I expect to be a brand that will receive a cult-like following, both from franchisees and customers.Taco Bell:Our "Summit Together" vision has enabled us to attain 6 top 100 stores in the last 4 years and 3 additional stores in the top 2.5% of the country. CMG provides uncommon benefits like paternity leave for all employees and the ability to volunteer for the cause of your choice for up to a week - paid!Early on in my career, I was fortunate to be mentored by then C.O.O. of YUM Brands, Aylwin Lewis.At 29, I was asked to speak at the national Taco Bell convention on Achieving Breakthrough Results.We recently opened a Cantina in Butte, Montana and broke our single store sales record by 40% on St. Patty's Day!
