Biography
From dishwasher to corporate consultant, I have spent my life learning the ins and outs of the restaurant business.

My particular area of expertise is bringing together teams of people to realize a restaurant concept - from a local pub or bistro to a Michelin-starred fine dining establishment.

Whether creating a new concept or rebranding an established one, my company, Prendergast & Associates, provides consulting services to independent chefs, developers, and property management companies in creating successful restaurants.

Just like a film or theatre producer, the ever-changing landscape of exciting and inventive dining around the world has filled my life as a Restaurant Producer with a tremendous smorgasbord of every possible restaurant experience, not to mention countless delicious meals.
