OUR
TEAM
We're proud to employ some of the best hospitality professionals that Orlando has to offer.
Executive Chef Josh Oakley
has been a mainstay of the Central Florida culinary scene since 2000, working in many notable restaurants including Ravenous Pig, Cask and Larder, Rusty Spoon, and co-founding as chef-owner The Smiling Bison in 2013, which had locations in both Orlando and Sanford. Most recently he held the position of executive chef at 1921 Mount Dora. His signature modern comfort flavors are beloved in Orlando and inspired by his frequent visits to Ashville, where he makes as many pitstops as he can to enjoy fried chicken and biscuits.
General Manager Amanda Wissig
has been in the Orlando hospitality industry for over 15 years. She considers herself an Orlando native, growing up in Dr. Phillips and Ocoee. With a resume that includes Emeril's Tchoup Chop and opening Artisan's Table, she has an extensive background and dedication to guest service. She most recently joined Good Salt in 2020 as part of Reyes Mezcaleria's team and was quickly recognized for her leadership and passion to cultivate the guest's experience. When not at The Monroe, you'll find her at home with her husband, two children, four cats, one dog, and thirty houseplants.
Beverage Director Shawn Newman
hails from Winter Park, Florida. Found behind the bar at Prato, Bitter & Brass, The Guesthouse, and The Robinson Cocktail Room in downtown Orlando, Shawn channels his competitive attitude towards bartending and parenthood. While raising his 7-year-old daughter, Shawn is also a World Class Bartender with more than 12 years of experience in the service industry and plenty of competition exposure. He has competed in Diageo’s World Class in three consecutive years, Bacardi Legacy Global Competition, Woodford’s Manhattan Experience, Heaven Hill’s Bartender of the Year, Star of the Bar, various local competitions, and most recently, being named a Top 50 bartender in the United States by World Class for the second time in three years.
