In 2021, she took on franchise development and has propelled unit growth by creating a scalable revenue engine.

“It’s an honor to receive this award during such an exciting period of momentum for Re-Bath,” said Villegas. “Our team continues to raise the bar in customer experience, operational excellence, and franchise growth and I’m grateful to play a part in shaping the future of this brand.”

Gold, Silver, and Bronze Stevie Award winners were determined by the average scores of more than 190 business professionals around the world, working on seven juries.
