Hi, I'm Jake, a Culinarian from Utah
As a local my ambition is to build a career as a Chef in Utah. I am striving to break the stereotypes associated with sustainable and healthy food.
I enjoy cooking with local products and creating seasonal dishes. I believe strongly that everyone has something they can teach me, and the only way for me to grow is to remain a student for life.
