      Responsible for managing the budget and staff of an 18th century tavern - Chowning's Tavern. Under my tutelage, we have increased revenue to $3.2 million annually (+28%,) and increased our gross margin by over $500,000. I spearheaded a program to utilize J-1 students from Europe and Asia to resolve our chronic short staffing. I also worked with the local VA Hospital and set up a Veterans Vocational Rehab Program within the Historic Area Taverns. Chowning's Tavern rose from 87th best restaurant, to 26th best restaurant in Williamsburg, VA during my tenure. Show less
