Adam Modzel joined Bagel Brands in 2024 following a distinguished career at Starbucks, where he began as a barista and most recently served as Regional Vice President, overseeing nearly 600 stores and $1.5 billion in revenue across the New York/New Jersey market.
Throughout his tenure, Adam held a series of progressive leadership roles, including special assignments in Public Relations and leading high-impact initiatives in Starbucks’ hometown market of Seattle. He brings a proven track record of turning around underperforming markets, building high-performing teams, and developing talent—earning a reputation as a people-first leader who champions both partners and the voice of the guest.
