About

He succeeded interim CEO Al Weber Jr. in August 2010, who led the corporate restructuring of the company following its Chapter 11 bankruptcy and the ousting of former executives Mark Shapiro and Daniel Snyder. Under his first period of leadership, Six Flags' market value increased eight-fold through a period of high guest and employee satisfaction ratings, improved operations, and a ten-fold return for shareholders.

He held the position until February 2016, before being reinstated in 2017 following the sudden departure of his successor, John Duffey. During his second tenure, Six Flags re-acquired many of its former properties that had been sold off to other companies, including Six Flags Darien Lake, Frontier City, and Six Flags Hurricane Harbor SplashTown, among others.
