Stan has also worked with celebrity chefs to develop innovative concepts bearing their name, including Todd English’s Bonfire & Bonfire Bar, Martin Yan’s Yan Can, and David Burke’s Burke in the Box, as well as entertainment icons, such as Dick Clark and Sammy Hagar, to develop concepts around their music and backgrounds. Stan’s industry specialties include concept development, training, marketing, purchasing, branding and identity, franchising, merchandising, design, and operations.
