Elizabeth-Anne’s journey began in restaurant management, where she discovered the profound impact of training and upskilling on both personal growth and team performance. This realization propelled her into pivotal roles, including her tenure at Spur Steak Ranches, where she trained and mentored new franchisees, and as Head of Human Relations, Marketing, and Skills Development for the Quintet of Cuisines. In the latter role, she spearheaded training initiatives for 480 employees across four restaurants, solidifying her reputation as a leader in workforce development.
