Dan Lowe, Director of Operations for Luna Grill, is number eight on our list of the 2014 Fast Casual Top 100 Movers & Shakers: People.

Lowe traded in his Chipotle role for an opportunity to be the director of operations for Luna Grill, a San Diego-based Mediterranean restaurant. For more than a decade, Lowe played an important role in the growth and development of Chipotle, managing up to 65 restaurants and budgets that totaled more than $100 million. With his new position at Luna, Lowe continues to focus on growth as the chain prepares to open its 10th location.

"I am very excited to be a part of this amazing team of people and offer any experience I can to help us grow stronger into the future while maintaining Luna Grill's original mission of providing our customers 'good food that is good for you,'" he said.

The chain plans to have 20 units open by the end of 2014, and 40 by the end of 2016.
