Clint brings extensive operational experience across several hospitality sectors, managing at regional, national, and global levels. He began his career with The Walt Disney Company where he held leadership roles, both domestically and internationally, in business operations and brand experiences.

Subsequently, he moved on to Wolfgang Puck Worldwide where he oversaw daily operations and strategic planning for 37 Wolfgang Puck Cafes and 13 Wolfgang Puck Express concepts.

His longest run was with Aramark, a multibillion-dollar food service, facilities, and uniform services provider where for 18 years he held senior-level positions and was part of the leadership team in the $1.3 billion global sports and entertainment division. At one point during his tenure there, he was VP of Market Development in Brazil where he served as Managing Director for the FIFA Games, and VP of Global Operational Excellence where he spearheaded corporate growth initiatives and operational strategies across 23 countries.

“I am thrilled to work with the Areas team to strengthen operations and grow the business,” says Clint. “It’s an exciting time at the company, especially with the recent win of the Houston Hobby airport contract where will be operating 10 new restaurants. I look forward to adding fresh talent to our best-in-class operational team.”
