Hello!

I’ve worked in the food and beverage industry for over 15 years. I started my early years as a young prep cook at the local yacht club, to most recently, a Food and Beverage General Manager for an acclaimed 2 Michelin key hotel in New York City.

Thinking that I would become a Chef after graduating the Culinary Institute of America in Hyde Park, I pivoted to the front of the house.

I’ve always said, if I ever missed working in the kitchen, I’ll just go run food to tables!

Since my days from the kitchen, I have opened 3 restaurants in the city. From fine dining, New York Times reviews and Michelin stars to upscal-casual and comfort foods, I would say I find a lot of joy and reward in my work.

As I continue to pursue my passion in this field, I hope that I can be a thoughtful and experienced resource.

Best always,

Rachel
