Food and people have always been my passions! I’ve been blessed to be able to pursue those passions through lots of different avenues. I've owned 3 restaurants, cooked on the front line of some crazy kitchens, planned 1200 person parties (through a Chinese interpreter mind you), and have held the hands of many, many brides as they plan the biggest day of their lives. Joining Laura (or sister as I like to call her) at Silver Spoons Catering and Easy Entrees by Silver Spoons is the perfect opportunity to combine all this experience! I look forward to helping you have a fabulous event or just putting a delicious meal together for your family! =)SALES & MARKETING:-Event/Catering Sales- Prospecting, price negotiating and bookings for corporate meetings, weddings, and special eventsOPERATIONS: -General Manager – Recruited, trained and motivated staff.
