Join us in revolutionizing hospitality

Kayla Wilson

I love managing our Enterprise Account Management Team because I get to interact with some of the most influential food and beverage leaders in the hospitality industry. I grew up playing volleyball in Santa Monica, California and eventually moved to the East Coast to play D1 at University of Rhode Island.

My favorite hospitality role was waiting tables at a busy oceanfront restaurant in Rhode Island, which conveniently also hosted a beach volleyball league in the summers!

Brandi Villarreal

I manage the team that supports our clients—all over the world. I love working with the best of the best across our Engineering, Product & Marketing, and Client Operations teams to ensure successful outcomes for customers.

Growing up, my family had a Tex-Mex restaurant in Dallas so I’ve worked most restaurant positions from dish to cashier, serving, and managing. My favorite hospitality role was operating a smoothie stand at music festivals across the country to pay for my summer music excursions!

Jed Staufer

As a Product Manager, I help build our API product line that enables our customers to access their refined POS data and analyze their businesses in powerful ways.

I have been in Colorado most of my life where I attended CU, started a family, developed a love of getting outdoors, and became a Denver Broncos fan.

My favorite hospitality role was bartending at an Italian restaurant during college where I learned the regulars’ favorite drinks, chatted with customers, and took care of the servers.

Carly Bryson

My team and I perform rigorous testing throughout the software development process to ensure we deliver high quality features to our customers. I grew up in Colorado and graduated from CU. I enjoy reading, being outdoors, and spending time with my husband, three little kids and my dog. My favorite hospitality role was waitressing for a small local restaurant in my hometown. I loved getting to know the regulars and building a rapport with the community.

Lauren Lathrop

I help discover and nurture partnerships for Avero and I love seeing what the future holds for our company and our industry! I think breaking bread with each other is the most basic form of human connection which drew me to food and beverage in the first place and I have always loved being part of that community. My favorite hospitality roles have been in hotel operations because you have a complete rotating cast of characters and make amazing connections to people from all over.

Anthony Schaefer

I lead the team that interacts with all of our small and mid-sized business customers. I love learning about all the ways independent restaurant operators, (the lifeblood of the industry) use Avero to push the F&B industry forward. I grew up in Chicago and fell in love with Midwestern hospitality and all the city’s great restaurants. My favorite hospitality role was being thrown to the wolves as the Beverage Operations manager at the Rio All-Suite Hotel and Casino at the ripe age of 23 and rising to the challenge.
