People who love food are always the best people

General Manager
Salt & Surrey Catering at Oklahoma City Zoo

I have over 30 years of experience in the Hospitality industry ranging from fast food to Casino venues. I came to Salt & Surrey from the OKC Fair and Main Event entertainment.

My passion is Hospitality and serving the public. I firmly believe that great service and a great smile go a very long way in our industry.

I have lived in Oklahoma City for 15 years and have two wonderful children and six grandchildren all of which I love spending time with.

My hobbies include movies, fishing, cooking out and spending time with my family. When I heard that the Zoo needed someone to manager their food service I jumped at the opportunity to do so.

What better place can you serve the public and be around animals all day.

Catering Sales Manager
Salt & Surrey Catering at Oklahoma City Zoo

As a Catering Sales Manager, I work closely with clients to ensure their events are successful by creating a new world, transforming a space, and translating desires into reality.

I’ve been heavily involved in the hospitality industry for years. The first time I planned and executed my first event on my own, I realized how fulfilling it is to build relationships clients and vendors. What an amazing journey it has been for me, learning how to bring a vision to life.

When I’m not working, I’m with my husband and our children, volunteering at the school, cooking, and running errands. Movie time at home with the family is a must.

Favorite things to do: Dance classes, board games
Every event needs: Patience
I’m inspired by: People who are driven
I relax by: Taking a drive around the city, listening to music
