PHOENIX — The American dream is alive and well. A perfect example of that is in the story from our guest on this episode of Amazing Arizonans.
Michael Zistatsis owns two successful restaurants and a successful catering business.
Michael came to America and started working at Christo’s as a busboy, eventually working his way up to manager and then a partner.
Now, Michael owns Alexi’s and Christo’s restaurants. Michael gives generously to his church and various groups and is an inspiration to me.
His story truly exemplifies the American Dream. I hope you enjoy it.
