Her areas of expertise include organization and making people feel special. Her favorite thing about being a General Manager is that every day is a new day and an opportunity to learn and have fun. According to Newall, “Hospitality is all about the guest and ensuring the guest returns more than once because of the great experience they have had while dining with us. It is the most rewarding part of my job.”  Newall credits her father as one of the most influential people in her life, “My dad is extremely compassionate and has always been a hard worker.  He has always shown me that by working hard and leading by example, others will want to help you.”
