He has also started and built multiple early stage companies and understands the high highs and low lows that go along with entrepreneurship.
Ask him about sleeping on a friends office couch for 9 months while trying to keep a business going; good times.
Among his most unusual accomplishments is that he created and popularized the wrap, yes, the burrito like thing, at a 30-unit restaurant chain he founded and sold called World Wrapps.
