Ten years ago, I walked into a cooking store, fell in love with the idea of teaching cooking, and turned to my husband and said, “Can I quit my job?” Thankfully, I have a partner who didn’t hesitate to say, “Absolutely.”
It’s amazing how quickly a decade flies by when you truly love what you do, the people you work with, and the community you’ve built along the way. What started as a simple idea became something so much bigger than I ever imagined—a thriving, successful company that I’m incredibly proud of.
In these ten years, I’ve had opportunities I once only dreamed of: appearing on the Food Network, cooking for celebrities, taking the pandemic and turning it into a positive thriving online experience for Fortune 500 companies, catering President Biden’s 2019 Westchester fundraiser, being named Best of Westchester for Best Personal Chef, and connecting with some of the most respected chefs in the area—people I’ve long admired who now know me, too.
I never could have predicted that CBJ would grow into what it is today. I’m beyond grateful, humbled, and excited for what’s still to come, and trust me there is a lot more coming stay tuned!!
Thank you to everyone who has hired me, continues to hire me, my amazing staff that make each and every job fun…I couldn’t do it without you, thank you to my friends and family who always support me both professionally and personally it means more than you’ll ever know!!! Let’s hear it for CBJ and the 10 years of awesomeness it has created!!!! ♥️👩🏼🍳🎉🥂
