So how’d you get started?
I started my career in Management Consulting with Accenture and Bain & Company where I had the opportunity to work on business challenges at some incredible global brands across North America, Europe & India. These early years in Consulting afforded me an amazing view into the exciting world of business strategy, operations and marketing and I was hooked! So much so that I chose to return to school to complete my MBA at Columbia Business School in New York soon after.

You may have wondered what lies behind the striking and intricately carved limestone façade of The Albany Club. Located at King and Church, the expertly modeled, Victorian-era architecture is a historic throwback in a city where new and generic skyscrapers and condos seem to be popping up just about everywhere. Despite the venue being surrounded by many of the city’s most iconic and bustling landmarks – St Lawrence Market, St James Cathedral, and steps from the Financial District – the venue nonetheless feels exclusive, charming, and historically-rich.
Upon entering the space, I was imm ..read more

Before working here, I had no experience working in a restaurant environment nor the desire. When I turned 19, I entered into a structured apprentice chef program and began my career.
