Meet Our Recruiters

  • I spent almost a year working alongside the HR Director at my first Chick-fil-A, where I led all of our first-round interviews and fell in love with the process of finding great people. Since then, I’ve completed over 800 phone screens for new Chick-fil-A restaurants—helping Operators save time, reduce burnout, and build strong, culture-driven teams from the very beginning.

    What I love most about recruiting is getting to help Operators find top talent—and meet so many potential team members whose lives might be changed forever the moment they start their Chick-fil-A journey. It’s a joy and an honor to play a small part in that story.

  • I am a small town Kansas kid born and raised. The youngst of 3 siblings. Former college athlete, Christian, and married to my highschool sweetheart Makena. I am a proud dad to my beautiful daughter Emersyn Anne Rust.

    My Chick-fil-A Journey began at the front counter in 2018 in a red polo my junior year of college. I fell in love with the restaurant and pursued the Operator Opportunity with the support of my Operator, Nate White. After 4.5 years of hard work, I began LDP and was on the road for 25 months with my bride and two dogs. after 10 assignments we exited LDP to work in Billings, Montanta until we were selected for our own opportunity.

    On July 8 2025, I was named Operator - Select for New Philadelphia FSU, in New Philadelphia, Ohio. I am grateful and blessed to be a part of this incredible brand that has positively impacted my life and to carry on the legacy of Truett Cathy and the positive influence into this community and the Tuscarawas County.

    I am passionate about building relationships, pursuing excellence, making long term impact, and creating value.

    I also enjoy spending time with my family, golfing, cooking, and fitness!
