Watch how George took a bite out of the restaurant industry.

Are you a game changer, like George?

He had a vision to shake up the restaurant industry — see how FDU helped him make it a reality.

I am the Founder and CEO of a fast-casual restaurant chain called fresh&co.

We have 13 locations in midtown Manhattan with another 18 locations under development.

Prior to attending FDU, I knew I wanted to go into the hospitality industry.

I just never knew what part of the industry I wanted to focus on and attending the hospitality program here at FDU really helped solidify what part of the industry I wanted to focus on.

The biggest deciding factor for me for FDU was not only the location and the vicinity to Manhattan but was really the Hotel Restaurant Tourism program that they offered, it was one of the top programs and still is one of the top programs in the country.

If you're considering FDU you really have two options, the best of both worlds whether you want a quieter, more remote campus or more of a metropolitan campus, the choice is yours.

The greatest benefit for me for attending FDU was the real-world education that I received here.

FDU provided me with the fundamentals to be an entrepreneur and provided me the confidence to go out there and to be successful.
