Fourth Generation Restaurateur, quite nearly born in Maxwell’s Steakhouse - Bloomington, IN. After college, my family urged me to join a proven company rather than the family business. I worked my way up from a dishwasher through all FOH positions, F&B Controller, and KM with in fine dining and upscale casual concepts to become a successful senior executive, capable of overseeing $50MM over multiple units, divisions, and concepts. I have travelled the world driving restaurant openings, growing brands, and contributing to the cultures of my respective employers. I'd love to join an organization allowing my passionate leadership and energy to flourish. I pride myself on financial acumen, systems in place, efficiency, accountability, cleanliness and organization... but above all, Our People, Food and Service. Thank you.
