Recently, I was in Atlanta’s Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport and experienced something I will never forget. I had just gotten off a long
I love to see when people take their craft seriously. Those kinds of people never stop improving. The ones who are relentless about doing things with excellence. The type of individuals who study to get a 100% on every test, every time. To those people, a 99% is the same
There is something special about loving what you do. It’s unmistakable, infectious and inspiring. Recently, my team and I had the privilege of hosting a 3-Day Retreat at the iconic Rancho La Puerta in Baja, Mexico. One of the most memorable parts of the event was our time at the
Leadership is not for everyone. It requires a very specific type of person who sees the best in others, and acts on it…consistently.

Thank you, Hospitality. My life changed when I met you. Everything came alive. Even as a 15-year old busboy, I knew that nothing would ever be the same. I wasn’t just serving bread, pouring water and clearing tables. No, my role was to ensure a flawless, world-class dining experience for
