MEET OUR TEAM
Jeremy wilks
General Manager
A former Marine and Philadelphia native, Jeremy is happy to call San Diego home. From a seat at the Padres game to the beach with his family, Jeremy loves being at the gates of the Gaslamp and serving Guests at Lou & Mickey’s. He joined the company as Senior Manager in January 2004 and was promoted to General Manager three months later. He’s had his sights on working with the company much longer than that, first applying for a role in 2007! Jeremy’s experience in restaurant management stretches back to the 1990s with positions at Cheesecake Factory and Yard House, including Executive Kitchen Manager, Regional Kitchen Manager and Director of Operations. He’d be happy to talk music and sports (Fly, Eagles, Fly!) with you at any time.

KYLE CARPENTER
Executive Chef
Kyle has been mastering how to prepare the perfectly cooked steak since 2006. He’s a rare talent. An Atlantic Cape Culinary Graduate, Kyle was assistant manager at Outback Steakhouse and Kitchen Lead at Blue Plate before joining the company at 555 East in Long Beach as broiler cook and back of house supervisor in 2015. Kyle has held positions of increasing responsibility at Lou & Mickey’s since 2018. As Executive Chef, Kyle leads with empathy and learns just as much from his crew as he imparts to them. The learning aspect of the job is what drew him to the position and continues to fuel him daily. Steak isn’t his only passion project though. Kyle also likes to spend his time freshwater fishing and collecting high-end pocket knives and RC trucks.

Being a host with the company in 2019 literally opened the door to the experiences Arian wanted to create for Guests. Today, as Event Sales Manager, she’s passionate about collaborating with Guests to create something unforgettable and unique for every event. San Diego isn’t just where Arian works – it’s a city that she loves. Outside of the restaurant, Arian is highly active in her hometown as a San Diego Tourism Authority member, California Restaurant Association member, and works closely with the Padres, PETCO Park and visitors to the San Diego Convention Center.
