Todd has been in the hospitality and restaurant business for thirty one years. He began his career at Luby’s Cafeteria in 1989 as an assistant manager and then became an instructor at the training school, preparing fellow managers for successful restaurant operations. After spending ten years with Luby’s in operations and training, Todd left to work in contract food service for seven years, most notably as Executive Director of Operations for Aramark’s Educational Food Service Division. It was during that time that he learned all facets of contracts, franchising and various operational practices based on the types of locations.

With that knowledge, he re-joined Luby’s in 2006 to launch a contract foodservice division. As Vice President of Operations for this new endeavor, Todd developed and led a team growing the new brand for the subsequent five years where sales reached eighty million dollars.
Todd was then promoted to Senior Vice President of Operations in May 2011, working with all brands in day-to-day operations. He was named Chief Operating Officer in November 2018 to rebuild the culture as well as company operations. He brings extensive experience, skill and understanding to all facets of leadership, development and operations.

He credits his success to being a servant leader, passion for people and the invaluable knowledge he gained from the many colleagues who have taught and inspired him over the years.

Todd holds a Bachelor of Science degree in Business from Louisiana State University where he played center and was team captain for the LSU Tiger football team. Away from the office, he enjoys reading, hunting and fishing. Todd and his wife Myra have been married thirty-three years and have two children and two beautiful grandchildren.
