With two decades in restaurants and hotels across the United States, I’ve seen firsthand how great leadership transforms both teams and guest experiences. As a Food & Beverage Director and instructor with eCornell, I found my greatest fulfillment in developing managers — helping them find confidence, clarity, and purpose in an industry that demands so much. Coaching lets me focus on that mission full-time: guiding the next generation of F&B professionals as they grow into impactful, balanced hospitality leaders.
