Brandon is a hospitality tech entrepreneur who has used his experience working in operations at the top hospitality groups such as Danny Meyer’s USHG and Patina Restaurant Group to build and scale early stage tech products that help restaurateurs. He is currently CEO of Bite, the best in class digital ordering solution for restaurants, leading the company to incredible growth within top QSR brands like Chick Fil A, Taco Johns, and Fazoli’s. Bite’s goal is to Elevate Hospitality Everywhere and this surely is Brandon’s passion as well.
Previous to Bite, Brandon was employee number 4 at Resy, a leading restaurant reservation platform, where he built and oversaw the sales and operations departments for the company’s first 3 years (Resy was acquired by American Express in 2019). Prior to Resy, he was a sales manager at Avero where he hired over 25 Hotelies. Brandon is a proud Cornell SHA alumni and spends his time enjoying family life with his wife Elyse, son Jackson and daughter Jane, who all make impromptu guest appearances on Zoom meetings.
