Our Team
Ian Newell
Chester, VA
Creative Director and Owner
Goatocado is fueled by the endlessly innovative creations of Ian Newell. He inspires us to take an unapologetic stance in conscious and considered food, always strive for more and having an appreciation for life and the opportunities at hand.

Charles Nelson
Richmond, VA
Director of Operations
Going the “extra mile” for Charles is not only making sure the crew feels supported but also literally driving extra miles to be there if his team needs him. When he isn’t overseeing all sides of the company you can either find him spiritedly organizing a catered event for Goatocado or spending a precious moment outdoors with his lovely, ultra-supportive fiance.
Will Cash
Amherst County, VA
Festival manager/coordinator/director
Will undoubtably has a love for the land. As our festival director, a geo science major and previously a cartographer, Will is well-versed in recognizing and adapting to the obstacles that come with unchartered territory.
Bree Davis
Orange, VA
Marketing Director
With one hand on a camera and another on the buttons of social media, Bree keeps Goatocado looking as fresh as it tastes.
Brad DeGroff
Fredericksburg, VA
Operations Manager
Brad is everything that we hope to represent through the Goatocado lifestyle: eager, upbeat, active and engaged. He works hard behind the scenes to make sure the crew and the customers always have a smile on their faces.
Michael Eldred
Richmond, VA
Wild Card
Every company could use a Michael of All Trades. He is not only an invaluable asset in the day-to-day of Goatocado but also in acting as a liaison between departments to assure that all voices heard.
