Kerri Lonergan-Dreke
CEO & Co-Owner
Kerri is a native of the Northwest & started working in the hospitality industry as a young teenager. With a Bachelor's degree in Business Administration, her knowledge & experience are critical in many areas of restaurant operations. From HR, to marketing, finance, & everything in between - Kerri knows - and does it all!
Community support & volunteer service are a hallmark of Kerri’s business career. Big Brothers/Big Sisters was Kerri’s first volunteer commitment after college. She has participated on Chamber of Commerce boards, PTA & school auction committees, & served on the Lynnwood City Council from 2010- 2013. Kerri is currently a volunteer board member for Hopeworks (a Housing Hope affiliate) The Snohomish County Tourism Bureau, and the Washington Hospitality Association.
Kerri loves the opportunity to share the best of Italian food, wine & culture with guests and staff, and has since 1987. Frequent trips to Washington wine country and of course Italy are "necessary" to stay fresh and creative in the competitive culinary and hospitality scene.
Kerri’s favorite season in the Northwest is summer. Bring on the sunny skies & warm weather, especially at the Everett & Bellingham marinas! Downtime includes working out at the gym, bicycle riding, boating & hiking, and snuggling on the coach with her husband Mark, and their two dogs Stella & Lilly.
