PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE

ROY'S HAWAIIAN FUSION, Philadelphia, Pa June '09-

Hospitality Manager

I am responsible for the training and staffing of all Front of House(FOH)

personnel. I am responsible for the implementation, tempo and overall

design of taking new hires through Roy's hiring process. My other most

important job task is guest relations. The teaching and insurance of the

highest fine dining techniques and service standards is a responsibility of

mine, which I am proud to hold. Other weekly/daily responsibilities include

ordering office/restaurant supplies, all daily money matters, facilitating

communication between our Managing Partner and home office, labor and sales

projections, keeping in touch with advertising contacts, building private

dining reservations through friends and business contacts and all

scheduling for FOH (upto 25 employees).

DAVIO'S NORTHERN ITALIAN STEAKHOUSE, Philadelphia, Pa June '07-

June '09

Manager

In a multi outlet setting, I played many roles. At most points, I

supervised a 25 seat bar, 25 seat lounge and 140 seat fine dining

restaurant. If the Catering Manager was off site, I oversaw the set up,

execution and reset of several private dining rooms. I was responsible for

the daily operations of the restaurant, including the restaurant's set up,

staffing and training of personnel and all money matters. In this great

setting, I "earned my brass" at my first fine dining and management

position.
