He grew up in Portland, Oregon and graduated from Le Cordon Bleu. He then worked his way up the ranks in nearly 50 kitchens on the West Coast before moving to Chicago to work at Charlie Trotter's restaurant, where he spent four years and earned the coveted position of Sous Chef before leaving to open Moto.
