We would like to welcome the following people to the KCMPI family:



Mr. John A. Short, CMP
Owner
Menus Beyond Organic
7400 Belleview Ave.
Kansas City, MO 64114

John A. Short, CMP, has made a career writing menus since 1980 when he started in management with Victoria Station Restaurants. His background in the hospitality industry includes restaurant ownership, projects in hotels/resorts and off-premise catering, as well as developing menus for event planners. He has been fortunate to travel extensively, working from Puerto Rico to Mexico; Africa to the Caribbean, and most recently he took a culinary class in Italy. 

A Certified Meeting Professional since 1995, John prefers the moniker "food guy" to "foodie." He has been published in various trade journals and presented and spoken in numerous programs for various organizations. His true passion is connecting people who might otherwise have never met one another. John's offbeat sense of humor is a refreshing change of pace from the usual "you are what you eat" persona to a "sure, M&Ms are good for you!" attitude. In 2013, John founded Menus Beyond Organic, offering affordable, ethical menu design to event planners, restaurants, conferences and just about anybody who eats.
