Summary
Dynamic line cook with a proven track record at Middleton Place, excelling in food safety and kitchen organization. Highly motivated and detail-oriented, I improved kitchen efficiency by streamlining prep tasks and ensuring cleanliness standards. Skilled in grilling techniques and effective communication, I consistently delivered high-quality dishes under pressure. I participated in TTC’s Wine Dinner, the biggest wine dinner in the Lowcountry. The 2024 event served 600 guests and raised over one million dollars in one night and also in 2023.
