Launch Your Fast Casual Food Business With Confidence
From your garage dream to your first grand opening. I’ll help you skip the costly mistakes.
Starting a fast casual food business is thrilling… and overwhelming!
I know, because I did it myself. I began in my garage in 2016 and grew to a six-unit franchise brand (4 thriving locations and 2 in development) that’s still expanding today.
Over the years, I’ve helped countless new food business owners get started the right way, building smart systems, solid plans and brands that customers come back to again and again. Now, I’d love to help you do the same.
Why most small food businesses fail
Fact: 82% of small businesses fail because of cash flow problems.
It’s not because they weren’t busy, it’s because they didn’t cost their menu properly, price for profit, or plan their labor.
You don’t have to be another statistic.
Together, we’ll build your foundation so you can open with confidence and keep your doors open for years to come.

I know how overwhelming it feels to figure out licenses, vendors, pricing, staffing, food safety plans and how to keep customers coming back. I’ve done it all and I’ll help you do it, too.
