He was instrumental in negotiating my contract and made sure I was satisfied with every aspect of that contract. His work did not end there.

It was a pleasure getting to know you. Any of you fortunate enough to work with Scott will quickly find all of this to be evident. Sincerely, Chef Jonathan Pflueger
