I have worked with Brian on foodservice projects for the University of Wisconsin, Division of Intercollegiate Athletics, the most notable being the renovation of Camp Randall Stadium.

This was a three year process of design and follow through of installation for a venue that had no real foodservice to speak of when it started to a full line foodservice arena. I found Brian through this whole process to be dedicated and reliable and was willing to listen and understand our objectives with every facet of design. He worked well in cooperation with other Food and Beverage staff along with other members of the Athletic Department.

He communicated information to us in a timely manner and followed up on the requests we had. He respected our concern for quality in all areas of foodservice and especially our philosophy for maintaining the highest standard of customer service to our guests.
