About Me

I came to the MAUSD/ANWSD Food Service Cooperative in 2023 as Executive Chef with a career spanning fine dining restaurants, country clubs, artisan cheesemaking, and K–12 foodservice leadership. A graduate of the Culinary Institute of America, I am passionate about connecting schools with local farms and producers to create fresh, nutritious meals that strengthen both student wellness and the surrounding community. I believe every school meal is an opportunity to inspire lifelong healthy eating while supporting the local food economy. In June 2026, Erika Revell and I assumed the role of Co-Directors of School Nutrition after succeeding long time Director, Kathy Alexander.
