Throughout my career, I have designed and implemented the infrastructure to drive rapid growth, sustainability, and profitability in multiple restaurant businesses. Having owned seven restaurants and taken four public (NASDAQ: CHAR), I have earned a reputation for superb employee retention, leadership and development, and strategic sales planning, turning around restaurant performance and carving out a position in a competitive market. I apply a continuous improvement approach to each initiative I undertake, accelerating growth by 10–20% each year and revamping teams and hiring processes to retain the strongest performers while reducing turnover to 45%. A few notable accomplishments from my career include:- Orchestrating the shift from in-house dining to take-out operations at Buffalo Wild Wings as a result of the pandemic, retaining a limited team with minimal disruptions to service.- Prioritizing attracting and retaining high-performing teams to improve hourly staff turnover from +200% to 85–90% at Buffalo Wild Wings before the pandemic. - Developing strategic relationships to grow sales by ramping up local store marketing, increasing sales by over 10% year-over-year (YoY) at Joe’s Crab Shack.As someone who is repeatedly consulted for my leadership, mentorship, and business expertise, I value learning about new projects and connecting with other innovators in the restaurant management space.
