BIOGRAPHY
I received a culinary degree from Le Cordon
Bleu program in Pasadena in 2001 with a
perfect attendance record. Before leaving
culinary school, I had already worked for
Wolfgang Puck and Pinot Bistro / Patina
Catering Group, working with Chef Joachim
Splichal and Chef Octavio Becerra.
From there I moved on to work as Sous Chef
at The Harvest Restaurant. I began working at Saddle Peak Loge in 2008 as Chef De Cuisine and was instrumental in getting an excellent review for the restaurant from S. Irene Virbila - L.A. Times.
In 2012 I began work as a Private Chef
at a private estate in Camarillo. I was
responsible for purchasing and
preparing food for a family.
In 2014 I held a Chef De Cuisine
position at Malibu Beach Recovery
Center. I was in charge of menu design,
meal planning, special diets, and food
ordering.
At this time I also did catering and was
a private chef for celebrities, including
musician Tom Petty and professional baseball player Ryan Braun. I am hoping to continue as a private chef, preparing quality cuisine and dining experiences. Jim Cole 805-***-****
