Throughout the last 8 years, I have experienced wonderful opportunities which have led to my growth and development as a chef. I have had the opportunity to train under Johnson and Wales Chef, Personal Chef Emily Lane in Charleston, SC. My time in the kitchen with Chef Emily has been devoted to learning from one of Charleston's best. Precision and Creativity coupled together have helped me learn that food is a beautiful art form. Chef Emily has challenged me to rise above "good" to exceptional. In addition, culinary runs strong in my family, as my brother, William Kern graduated from the Culinary Institute of America. I have learned how to develop an atmosphere in which one feels extremely catered to due to my brother's influence as he has served many actors, politicians and presidents. When I enter a space I feel as though it is important for you, my client, to be introduced to the best I have to offer - making it a magical experience.

For me, cooking is...

an opportunity to create an experience where all of my senses are engaged.

I learned to cook at...

home with tips from my brother, a CIA chef. I have trained directly under Chef Emily Lane, a JWU Chef, in Charleston, SC,

A cooking secret...

is being sensitive to the desire of the client foremost. After that, it is all about pouring your heart into each dish - drawing out the flavors.

Chef Michele was amazing, highly recommend her!

Chef Michele was wonderful to work with! We surprised my parents for their anniversary and I was thrilled we were able to create a menu that appealed to the tastes of each one, with an experience my family truly enjoyed! I hope the next time we make it to the east coast we are able to work with Chef Michele again!
