    My culinary style, like so many people’s, was created by those who scorned industrialized food; culinary Luddites, we could call them, after the 19th-century English workers who abhorred the machines that were destroying their way of life. I learned to cook from the books of Elizabeth David, who urged us to sweep our cupboards “clean for ever of the cluttering debris of commercial sauce bottles and all synthetic aids to flavoring.”…

    Each day international cuisine was featured and I began to view food in a different light. Food became an art form to me – one that I would become obsessed with and vowed my life to perfect. My enthusiasm blossomed even more when Great Chefs featured two segments in The British Virgin Islands. Where Chef Ivor Peters of The Sugar Mill Hotel & Restaurant and Chef John Rhymer of The Little Dix Bay Resort and Spa, both showcased their creativeness and passion for pastries. This in turn made me feel that one day I would be great enough to be considered a Great Chef. With that incentive in mind, that enabled me to enroll in the New England Culinary Institute administered at the H. Lavity Stoutt Community College where I obtained an Associates of Occupational Studies in Culinary Arts in my pursuit of becoming a Great Chef.…
