SANTA BARBARA, Calif., Sept. 28, 2026 /CourierPR/ -- Kamran & Company has appointed three new leaders to its executive team, deepening the company's expertise across sales, project execution, and financial leadership. The appointments include James Dinardi as Chief Financial Officer, Matthew Harlan as Chief Sales Officer, and Daniel Rios promoted to Vice President of Project Operations.
James Dinardi brings more than 20 years of financial and operational leadership experience to Kamran & Company. Throughout his career, he has helped build and scale organizations, including one construction company that grew from approximately $7 million to more than $100 million in revenue. Dinardi also brings direct kitchen construction experience and a strong background in financial strategy, operational planning, construction finance, and organizational growth.
Matthew Harlan has joined Kamran & Company with a unique combination of hands-on hospitality experience and proven sales leadership. After training at Le Cordon Bleu College of Culinary Arts, Harlan spent more than a decade in Executive Chef roles before transitioning into business development with TriMark USA in 2018. He held increasingly senior sales leadership positions, most recently serving as Regional Vice President of Contract and Institutional Sales for the Southeast Region. His experience on the creative, operational, and sales sides of the foodservice industry gives him a firsthand understanding of customer needs, relationship building, and the execution required to support successful projects.
Daniel Rios' appointment reflects more than a decade of growth within Kamran & Company. He joined the organization in 2012 as a sheet metal apprentice and advanced through roles including journeyman, general superintendent, project manager, project executive, and General Manager of Kamran Metalworks before being named Vice President of Project Operations. His project experience includes major hospitality and entertainment destinations, including several large casinos in Las Vegas and a new professional football stadium. In his new role, Rios will oversee Kamran & Company's portfolio of contract projects and lead national project management, delivery, and execution.
These leadership appointments follow Tim Welsh's appointment as CEO in May and continue to expand the experienced team behind every Kamran project. The company is committed to understanding its customers' needs and delivering solutions that work, and these new hires bring a wealth of experience in different areas of the business.
