Chris Cable

Chris Cable

Assistant Manager · Lola's Liquors

Assistant Manager · Murphy's Law Irish Pub

Marquis Wonsey

Marquis Wonsey

Hayden Webber

Hayden Webber

General Manager · Rebel & Rogue

Hayden runs Rebel & Rogue — live music in the back, icicle pendants overhead, the kind of general manager who sets the tempo for the whole room by 5 p.m. sharp.

With the team since 2024

Sommer Bellender

Sommer Bellender

General Manager · Black Sheep

Sommer runs Black Sheep — steady, warm, and famously a little feisty. The kind of general manager who keeps the wine list sharp, the floor calm, and every regular greeted by name.

Deniss Valenzuela

Deniss Valenzuela

Sous Chef · Murphy's Law Irish Pub

Deniss is Carmen's right hand at Murphy's Law — the one who stays for the 11 p.m. prep walk-through, then shows up first for Saturday brunch. Quick, precise, unflinching.

With the team since 2022

Vivian Davanzo

Vivian Davanzo

Guest Engagement Specialist · All venues

Vivian floats between every Thrive room — Black Sheep at six, Lola's at ten, Rebel & Rogue when the band kicks in. Knows the regulars across all four venues and the shortest line to the right table.

With the team since 2024

Connor MacCleary

Connor MacCleary

Guest Engagement Specialist · All venues

Connor works the room across every Thrive venue — the first hello, the second round, the reason a one-time guest becomes a Saturday-night regular. Quick with names, quicker with a recommendation.
