P.F. Chang's CEO Damola Adamolekun Bio

As the Chief Executive Officer of P.F. Chang's, I am focused on exceeding the expectations of millions of guests and 20,000 staff members in over 300 locations internationally.

Prior to my current role, I led similar strategic initiatives with Goldman Sachs' Investment Banking Division and TPG Capital in Private Equity. Currently, I am a partner at Paulson & Co., where I am involved with the sourcing and management of some of the company's largest investments. Additionally, I am on the board of directors for NuLeaf and Inday, New York-based restaurants dedicated to providing an upscale yet accessible dining experience.

I'm a graduate of Brown University and Harvard Business School. At Brown, I was a part of the Ivy League champion football team and Brown Investment Group, and at Harvard Business School, I served as portfolio manager for the HBS Investment Club.

Presently, I live in Scottsdale, Arizona, where I'm quickly becoming a Phoenix Suns fan, and am involved with the YPO Scottsdale Chapter as a board member and finance chair.
