My Story

It has always been my dream to open my own restaurant. I've worked in this industry since I could get a job with 20 plus years of experience in management as a chef. I love cooking and controlling the cost as well as doing inventory. I attended Sullivan University in Lexington Kentucky where I received an associate's degree in culinary arts in 2008. I continued my education and hopes that someday I would open my own restaurant. I attended Lake Cordon Bleu to earn my Bachelor's of Science degree in restaurant and hotel management and graduated top of my class with honors and a 3.9 GPA. I accomplished all of this while working full-time as a chef and a single mother since then I have worked at various restaurants as a chef. While working their inventory, food cost and portioning controls to increase overall efficiency and profitability.I love what I do and I think this shows in my work, I am super excited to be the new owner of the country Nook and to put my heart and soul into this place and turn it into something amazing.
