I am Dawn Archer, the founder, proprietor, and culinary artist behind Dawn to Dusk Catering and Personal Chef Service. Through my venture, I bring a delightful fusion of world cultures to the Jacksonville community. My culinary journey began during my time working for lifestyle magazines, where I had the privilege of exploring various countries in Europe and Asia. These experiences have profoundly influenced the diverse menu that I offer today. Upon relocating to Jacksonville, I ventured into teaching cooking classes in 2014. The encouraging feedback and admiration from my students led me to embark on the path of launching my own catering business.The years 2022 and 2023 have been remarkable milestones for Dawn to Dusk Catering. I am honored to have partnered with Airbnb, curating captivating and educational dining experiences for individuals seeking unique moments in Jacksonville, Florida. My culinary expertise has also brought me into the spotlight, with several television appearances to my credit. Additionally, my business had the privilege of being chosen as the face of Meta's 'Good Ideas Deserve to be Found' official campaign. Another accomplishment that holds great significance to me is my membership in the Women's Food Alliance.Beyond my culinary ventures, I find immense joy as an avid dancer and choreographer. My repertoire spans an array of styles - from ballroom and Latin to Tango, hip-hop, and classic folk dances. I have proudly participated in multiple state championships and conduct workshops on classic Chinese dance, fostering artistic and cultural exchange.In addition to these artistic endeavors, I am a passionate advocate for children's mental health. In July 2023, I proudly secured the title of Ms. Senior Jacksonville Diva, advocating for building better nutritional habits. My belief in the power of lifelong skills, like cooking and healthy eating, to enhance physical and mental well-being fuels this mission. My commitment extends to community initiatives and charitable work, where I aim to usher in positive change for both the present and future generations.
