When asked about hiring Ruben, Cahill had this to say: “I decided after I met with Ruben…about 1 ½ years ago that I was very impressed with him. He has a tremendous strategic mind and so I saw an opportunity there to bring in someone that had the tactical sense and an excellent understanding of how to marry your marketing and your guest experience together and how important it is that they go together well.”
