I am thrilled to be working with such a creative and collaborative team as we constantly look for new dishes and class themes to introduce to our curious guests.” When not on board, the team lives in locations all over the world, from Christchurch, New Zealand, to Riga, Latvia, to San Francisco, California, making them perfectly placed to keep their fingers on the global food pulse to bring the latest culinary trends to the kitchen classrooms on board. The talented Culinary Center Chef Instructors have hundreds of years of experience and fascinating career histories between them. Backgrounds include an early career as Julia Child’s executive assistant; executive chef for world-renowned television shows such as “Sesame Street” and “30 Rock”; and leading the food programs of blue chip companies including Google and Amazon.
