PF Chang's | Walnut Creek, CA
Assistant General Manager

Trained in the Pleasanton location and moved to Walnut Creek once completed. AGM to the RGM, duties included scheduling of all FOH staff. Consistently setting shifts up for success. Expedite food during peak hours. Buss tables, run food, clear tables, seat guests, wait on tables, anything that needed to be done during the shift to support the FOH staff. We managed using the Paradigms and it empowered everyone in the restaurant to function at their best.
Went back to the Pleasanton location some years later to help the RGM fill a gap she had in management.
Gardening - I am an avid Gardner who likes to grow my own food. I grow vegetables, berry bushes, and fruit trees. I also love tropical foliage, so I have a tropical garden designed to attract hummingbirds.
Horses - I ride but I am a very casual rider, my passion is grooming. I am a show groomer and typically will go groom horses for riders expecting to show their horses in an event.
