Drue Jaramillo brings a data-first and systems-oriented perspective to HRA's growth. As a mathematics and computational science student at Johns Hopkins University, he has focused on applied mathematics, statistics, and technical problem-solving across finance, data science, and software systems.
As HRA's founding Treasurer and now its CTO, Drue has helped build the organization's financial and digital infrastructure from the ground up. His work centers on making the association more scalable, more measurable, and more useful for members who need practical resources rather than complexity.
He is leading HRA's digital modernization with an emphasis on accessible tools, reliable data, and technology that supports restaurateurs, chefs, and partners without losing sight of the human side of hospitality.
