Her experience leading teams in service-driven environments gave her a deep understanding of the challenges businesses face when hiring great talent. Seeing the constant staffing struggles in restaurants and hotels, Patrice recognized an opportunity — and started a recruiting business out of her home to connect exceptional hospitality professionals with growing brands. What began as a one-woman operation grew into one of North America’s largest hospitality and executive recruiting firms. Patrice built a franchise model to empower entrepreneurs to own their own businesses with low overhead, proven systems, and ongoing support.
