\n<\/strong><\/h4>\nI was born in Los Angeles California, lived in El Paso Texas, and moved to McMinnville Tennessee in 1985. I attended MTSU and graduated with a degree in Public Administration and minors in history and psychology. While attending school I did work for different restaurant concepts but came back to my original starting job at Toots on broad. I started at Toot’s on broad in 1992 and have been with the company a combined 17 years over my career in the business, which has been my whole professional life. I have seen many restaurants come and go in Murfreesboro and I am proud and privileged to work for a company that has withstood the test of time and is still one of the oldest running restaurants. I feel it is because of our great concept, great food, great prices, great staff and wonderful ownership. I truly feel the concept of “Good food and fun” really hits in what we strive for here. I have met many wonderful people while employed here and have had great friendships formed over the years. In my spare time, I enjoy golfing, spending time with my friends, going to the beach when possible and watching my favorite teams. Toot’s will forever be a big part of my life!<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
