Mark Spears, managing partner of 1932 Reserve, took an unconventional path to becoming a prominent restaurateur at Lake of the Ozarks. Before opening 1932 Reserve, Sushi by R, and Driftwood Kitchen & Butcher, Spears honed his leadership skills as an All-American college soccer goalie, later playing professionally for the Kansas City Wizards, the Indiana Blast, and Derry City FC in Ireland.
