Assistant Manager of Training

Lainie started with MenuTrinfo about 1.5 years ago as a Fulfillment Specialist and has done an amazing job in the training department. Her attention to detail and kind communication is appreciated by all. She also has a great sense of humor ... as evidenced by her choice of photo.

Galen started with MenuTrinfo in 2022. He has worked tirelessly to bring efficiency and accuracy to all of MenuTrinfo's departments. Even though he's "behind the scenes" we're sure you've been impacted by his work. We're thankful for his knowledge and ability to make the complicated easy to understand.

Director of Training & Client Success

Sandra started with MenuTrinfo in February and her expertise and leadership was noticed immediately. Her previous work in higher education and restaurant management was a perfect fit for this role. We appreciate her warm and welcoming attitude and, of course, we can't complain about the occasional homemade treats
