Memphis
Summary
I have been a restauranteur for a little over 10 years now. Currently, I am pursuing my Bachelors Degree in Liberal Arts with Southern New Hampshire University. As these endeavors grow, I am seeking a new role to provide my exit from the restaurant business, either local or remote. I am highly skilled and adaptable, certainly the kind of employee one would want.
