When I opened this strategy and coaching business my focus was, and continues to be guiding, not instructing. Owners of restaurant, cafes, food trucks, cocktail bars want to solve staff, food costs and revenue issues. Best way to make lasting change is to improve systems and nurture teams. The result? Good Culture. It’s the holistic shifts that create lasting positve change. Clients say that fixing operational issues leads to positive revenue and healthy profits. This results in a positive environment that the owner enjoys, and hiring and retention become strong. What works for the team, works for the guests — they enjoy their experience, and come more often.

Restaurant Whisper is the podcast I host that focuses on independent restaurant owners. My voice and my approach to many different issues are revealed there. Listen to episodes here.

What’s my backstory? Short answer: I love food and hospitality. Long answer: I grew up in seven different countries, travelled to 65 more contries, and had an adventurous childhood as a diplomat’s daughter. As a family we’d dine at elegant restaurant and eat snacks st a street stall. My love of food and watching hospitality led me to own two cafes in the Inner Harbor of Baltimore for over 18 years. I hold a BA in economics, which consistently grounds my guidance — making sure my clients have lasting fiscal change.

As a coach and strategist since 2014. My passion is guiding owners to solid profits, better revenue with a strong team.
