Jeff was initially drawn to the culinary world because of both his mother and grandmother. Some of his favorite childhood memories include them cooking southern cuisine in their family kitchen in Charleston, South Carolina. When he decided he would attend HGTC, Jeff knew he was doing the right thing to help further his career opportunities in the long run.
One of Jeff’s favorite things about the Culinary Program at HGTC is how hands on it is throughout each semester. He gets to spend most of his time in the kitchen with other students who love to do the same thing he does- cook!
Jeff plans to move back to Charleston once he completes his degree and hopes to one day teach Culinary Arts. He would also like to own his own food truck after he gets some restaurant experience in the area. His advice to students would be to keep your eyes, ears, but more importantly your taste buds open to new things on your path to becoming a successful individual.
Congratulations, Jeff, for being chosen as April’s Spotlight Student!
