    Todd joined CER in 2010 as part of the Engineering recruiting team.

Todd started his career in cooking in 1985 at north bank restaurant.  Todd left the North Bank Restaurant to take a position at a well renowned restaurant called The Oregon Electric Station, there he worked for Chef Thomas Smith and learned the necessity of ingredients, lacking the right steps in preparation can be construed as being inferior, this is where Todd learned to always be prepared.

Todd continued in his career as a Chef and moved from Eugene to Olympia, Washington where he accepted an Executive Chef position at Panorama Restaurant. That is where he learned how to manage people. It is not easy to manage people. I learned to professionally challenge my staff while learning how to deal with individual personalities with direct communication and a positive attitude.

From Chef to Executive Recruiter with CER, it has been a seamless transition and natural for Todd.  Already Todd has seen the success you can have when you are dedicated and committed to a process.  Todd takes his past experiences of managing, preparing and having a “devils in the details” approach to his already successful desk. 

Todd has 3 children Anthony, Zachary, Isabella and a black cat named Losty.
