Ron Hagen: Consultant

Ron Hagen

Work

Since earning my Bachelor of Science degree in hotel, restaurant and institutional management from Penn State University, I have more than 15 years of leadership experience in the food & beverage industry. I’ve managed free-standing restaurants, banquet operations, hotels and contract food services. The majority of my career has been spent in the business dining sector, managing accounts for some of the nation’s largest banking institutions, including JP Morgan, Goldman Sachs and Capital One. My main focus with each of these accounts is innovation, pushing the boundaries of food service and never settling for the status quo. I love sharing my passion for and knowledge of hospitality and food service with others.

Life

I am a native of Puerto Rico and now reside in Dallas, Texas with my wife Sarah and my two daughters. A great part of my life revolves around being outdoors. In my free time, I love cycling and backpacking. The family and I love traveling, whether it be the mountains in Colorado or the beautiful beaches of Costa Rica. As an avid photographer, I love documenting all our travels. While not adventuring, I love to beat the Texas heat poolside with my family.
