She has worked in prestigious kitchens, including the Biltmore Estate, Aubergine, the Inn at Hunt Phelan, Wally Joe, and Yaya’s in Memphis, and has cooked at the James Bard House in New York City. After staging under a top pastry chef in Detroit, she became a private chef for Mike and Debbi Rose in Memphis for several years.
