​

As the proud owner of Chick-fil-A Zephyrhills, my journey has been shaped by a deep sense of purpose, starting with the simple yet meaningful gesture of putting on an apron and dedicating myself to making a positive impact. What began as an employee role has grown into a passion, fueled by the values and entrepreneurial spirit of our founder, Truett Cathy. His vision inspired me to contribute more, not only within the walls of our restaurant but also in the lives of those around me.

​

The path to leadership has not always been easy, but each challenge has only strengthened my commitment to our mission. At the core of Chick-fil-A lies a profound passion for family, a value that resonates deeply with me. This commitment extends far beyond our front counter—it is a guiding principle that drives everything we do. We are not merely a business; we are a community bound together by a shared dedication to supporting and uplifting one another.

​

Family, for us, is not just a word—it is the very foundation of our operations. Whether it is our team members or the valued guests who walk through our doors, everyone is treated as part of the Chick-fil-A Zephyrhills family. This sense of belonging is what fuels our desire to give back to the community that has welcomed us so warmly. Our commitment to community engagement is not just a business strategy; it is a reflection of our core values. Through initiatives such as supporting local schools and hosting charity events,

Chick-fil-A Zephyrhills is focused on much more than serving meals—we are here to nourish the very spirit of our community.

​

A central part of our journey has also been leadership development. I have had the privilege of witnessing many of our team members grow into inspiring leaders, each bringing their unique talents and strengths to the Chick-fil-A Zephyrhills family. This process is about much more than individual success; it is about empowering others to reach their full potential and creating an environment where everyone can thrive.

​

Ultimately, my story is not only about the success of Chick-fil-A but about the relationships we have built, the lives we have touched, and the dreams we have helped realize. Together, we are not just serving food—we are creating moments, forging lasting connections, and making a meaningful difference. My family and I feel deeply honored to be a part of this beautiful community and to contribute, in whatever way we can, to its continued growth and success.
