About

Being a graduate from Conestoga College and taking Business Administration Marketing. I have a passion for Sales and Marketing. I use what I've learned to drive sales and results in any company I work for. Working as a Corporate Trainer at Boston Pizza International and opening over 30 locations has provided me with extensive knowledge in operational standards, procedures and hospitality training. These are important building blocks to building any successful brand in todays market. My daily focus was always providing the best guest experience 100% of the time. Working as a Sales Representative at Flanagan Food Service and Gordon Food Service has significantly provided me with a wealth of product knowledge in many food and non food related categories. This experience has provided me with a great insight of how food distribution and vendor relationships relate to the hospitality industry. I always look to work for industry leaders who have great corporate cultures and core values that I can relate to and be proud to be representing in my professional career.
