I am a builder, both of brands and people. I see opportunities where others see barriers. My boundless energy and knack for scaling has enabled me to work in industries ranging from Consumer-Packaged Goods (CPG), to retail and now the restaurant business. I am best known for delivering win-win solutions for all the players I collaborate with (employees, retailers, vendors, and customers).

My successes are rooted in clear personal values and methodologies. I believe in leaving a legacy that will outlive me, obtaining results with my people (instead of at the expense of them), approaching business and particularly sales with a general manager mindset, and staying true to my authentic, quirky self.

What is most important to me is how I treat people and how others see me as a leader. I genuinely strive to see and develop the talent around me to give others the opportunities that I have been afforded. I have been coached by some of the industry’s best and am committed to paying it forward in honor of those who mentored me.

Having risen through the ranks to the C-suite with brands such as FIFCO, Anheuser-Busch, Clorox, and P&G, I am taking that knowledge and growth mindset and applying all my energy, passion and experience as the CEO of Big Chicken and Beer Park, Las Vegas. Both dining concepts are launching nationwide with commitments from investors and successful multi-unit operators.

I am always interested in connecting with people who share the same passion in growing a business, developing talent and seeing new possibilities.
