Xavier Molina

I'm a seasoned hospitality leader with extensive hands-on experience in operations management, team leadership, and revenue optimization. Over the past decade, I've built and revitalized high-volume venues in Houston by establishing robust SOPs, driving creative promotions, and managing large-scale cash and staffing operations.

At Kokoro, I implemented targeted employee training programs and efficient cleaning protocols, which improved operational consistency and cost control. At Porch Swing Pub, I streamlined daily cash operations and spearheaded popular events like "Monday Night Football Bingo" while introducing innovative cocktail menus that elevated guest engagement and boosted seasonal sales. At Cobo's BBQ, I built the bar program from the ground up—setting standards, cultivating key business relationships, and expertly managing high-volume crowds during peak sports seasons.

My background is reinforced by an Associate Degree from Lone Star College, recognition as a DECA National Winner in Business Marketing and Management, and certifications as a Food Manager and TABC professional. I also bring proficiency in modern hospitality technologies such as Toast POS, QR menus, and digital scheduling tools.

Combining creative strategy with technical know-how, I’m passionate about leveraging my experience to drive scalable growth and deliver exceptional customer experiences—whether through on-site operations or remote consulting.

I’m a hospitality leader with 10+ years of experience building bar programs, training teams, and streamlining operations. I’ve launched venues, created SOPs, and developed events that boost revenue and community connection. Now focused on remote consulting roles where I can use my skills in operations, branding, and guest experience to help others grow smart, scalable hospitality businesses.
