SUMMARY: Three decades of proven leadership results within the hospitality industry and other industries. Successfully launched and operated multiple start-ups. Expertise in team building, leadership development, vision and business strategy, new business development, sales and marketing plans, as well as financial expertise. I’ve had a rewarding and challenging career in the hospitality industry. My tenure, both wide and deep, started with working virtually every skill set in the industry, casual and fine dining, franchises, events, night clubs, comedy clubs, hotels, and resorts. Some of my favorite experiences were working with Intrawest and Vail Resorts in Colorado and Lake Tahoe which taught me the critical importance of a healthy and empowering work/life culture and the integration of excellence in guest service while balancing the demands of billion-dollar corporations. My franchise experience includes TGI Fridays, Starbucks, Pizza Hut, and The Firkin Pub Group. Without a doubt the most rewarding experiences of mine have been when young people I have worked with in the past reach out to me years later and thank me for my compassion and leadership.
