I have spent most of my professional life working with or around food. After spending several years cooking and working in kitchens across the U.S. and France, I decided to shift my career to a more academic focus. I received a master’s degree in Gastronomy from Boston University and my Ph.D. in Hospitality Management from the University of South Carolina. My research centers primarily around sustainability and foodservice, and focuses upon issues related to local food (and seafood) and restaurant consumer behavior. Perhaps it goes without saying, but I love to cook (and do it all the time with my wife who I met in grad school), and I also enjoy fishing and being near the water.
