Hoppin’<\/a> and it’s been a wild ride ever since. We opened our first location in December 2017, followed by Pinhouse in August 2019, and another Hoppin’ in March 2020. The pandemic threw us a curveball, but we<\/p>\npivoted and persevered.<\/p>\n
Post-pandemic, my team and I set out on a new adventure, launching the franchise process for Hoppin’ in September 2022. We’re bringing a fresh approach to franchising a taproom\/bar concept, and I’m excited to see it rapidly grow across the country.<\/p>\n
Beyond the bar and restaurant scene, I also dabble in commercial real estate and invest in tech companies. But perhaps the endeavor I\u2019m most proud of is the birth of my son, Nolan, in August<\/p>\n
2023.<\/p>\n
This has been my journey of entrepreneurship thus far. There have been many highs and many lows, but my eagerness to take risks and never fear failure has earned me a life of fulfillment and flexibility that most dream of. Carving my own path continues to fuel me, therefore my journey is far from over.<\/p>\n
