I have had the privilege of opening this beautiful resort, nestled next to Yosemite National Park. I came on 3 days before the ribbon cutting. The manager prior to me hadn't done what they should have and left me a blank canvas with 3 days to go. In a very short period of time, I was able to accomplish the near impossible task. I worked with vendors and set up contracts, ordered inventory, helped program the POS system, created and developed the wine and specialty cocktail menu, and have hired and trained the right staff. I am currently working with my executive chef, Angelique Pereat, in opening our second fine dining concept. I have worked with wineries, and reps from around the world to source a world class wine list. We were recently highlighted in an article for Forbes magazine.

I was honored for the short opportunity at Wanaaha casino. If I could have found housing, I would still be up there. In my short time with the tribe, I reopened catering that hadn't been available for over a year driving $10k in one month, I created the very first ever policy and procedure manual for the staff, all while finding creative marketing strategies to boost sales. I worked with Human Resources a lot in writing new job descriptions for the department, job duties, and helped with onboarding processes.

I work as a multi-unit food and beverage supervisor. Responsible for a variety of managerial functions. Experience managing multiple food outlets, gaming, and tribal operations.
