We have thousands of happy clients who value the amazing food experiences we provide and who see the culture and productivity benefits that come from using HUNGRY.

We are a purpose-driven company committed to improving the lives of everyone we touch, most specifically our Chef partners, our Clients, the Communities where we operate and our Team. For our Communities , we have corporate commitments to helping fight hunger and environmental sustainability. Through our ‘Fight Against Hunger’ program, we donate one meal to those in need for every two purchased. With our ‘WeRecycle’ program, we promotes environmental waste reduction by offering biodegradable plates and cutlery with all delivered meals and free clean-up service that enables us to recycle and reuse most of the key materials we provide at our caterings (e.g. wire rack chafers, chef signs, extra plates and cutlery, etc.).

United States - Arlington, Virginia

I am an entrepreneur and engaged leader who is motivated by big, game changing ideas that will make our world a better place. I believe purpose-driven, people/customer-centered and goal-oriented organizations will succeed. Big ideas are hard to achieve but I relentlessly pursue them with courage, conviction and positivity.

I am also a husband and father of two incredible children that keep me young and remind me daily to keep things in perspective. I am convinced my son, who has a great sense of right and wrong and an innate desire to help others, will be a real-life superhero one day. My daughter is as independent and fearless as her mother and will be a rock-star at whatever path she chooses in life.
