To Whom It May Concern
I have been in the hospitality business for 20 plus years. Owned and operated seven
different restaurants, spent 13 solid years in the kitchen cooking, developing menus,
creating cost controls, and training staffs . Another 15 plus years in the front of the house
as a server, bartender, manager have afforded me the opportunity to hone my skills, train
and provide superior guest experiences.Purchasing all food and beverage products,
inventory cost controls and especially labor costs are areas of great interest and strength.
