OBJECTIVE
I am seeking a full-time position with a reputable individual, family or professional group that offers a dynamic, creative environment which allows me to express my creativity and still has an air of the structure and discipline of my art. Having grown a bit weary of the "rock-star" life of a public chef, I am now seeking a more focused and rewarding career in the private kitchen.
QUALIFICATIONS:
With twenty years of solid work experience, preceded by a fundamental education in the culinary arts, I have performed in nearly every capacity within the industry. I require minimal to no supervision and can easily lead a team of like-minded people. I have no fear of public speaking, nor of trying anything new. While I lack the traditional lengthy educational background, I have learned most of what I know through actual experimentation, application and practice.
