I am thrilled to be the chair of the Kids in the Kitchen section of the IACP, a professional organization dedicated to connecting culinary professionals to the resources they need to be successful.

At our annual conference in Portland in 2010, we cooked for the homeless with local 4H children.

Many thanks to Dan from The Renegade Kitchen for shooting this awesome video (and for being my friend and comic relief throughout the entire conference!)

At our annual conference in Austin in 2011, we had a fantastic garden to table workshop with students from the UT Elementary School and special guest, Bill Yosses, White House Pastry Chef.
