Philosophy
Dani is what students and friends call her. She is the guru of all things restaurant and finds ease in both front of house and back of house restaurant operations. Her strength is helping students realize that customer service is the most important skill in a restaurant. You have no legs to stand on if you can’t maintain healthy relationships with staff, purveyors and customers.
