Dan Parker

Dan has spent 30+ years working with small business owners across Southern California — restaurants, salons, retail shops, service businesses. He has watched hundreds of them get up and running and seen what makes the difference between the ones that thrive and the ones that struggle.

Dan brings the operator's perspective to My Friendly Staff: what small business owners actually have time for, what HR jargon they tune out, and how a restaurant owner thinks about hiring during the lunch rush vs. between dinner services.

He focuses on the business side of MFS: customer relationships, partnerships, and the broader vision of making hiring as simple as a help wanted sign that actually works.
