Description

Hello!

My name is Quinlan. I am from Asheville, North Carolina, a small town filled with art, music, good food, and beautiful mountains. I am currently finishing up a season in the wilderness of Alaska, working as the cook for a luxurious, yet homey, backcountry lodge that is only reachable by plane. With winter just around the corner here, we are beginning to wrap up the last few weeks of the season. It has been such a wonderful experience to live remotely with little to no access to modern day conveniences.

A bit about me: This past year, I wrapped up a degree in the Culinary Arts/ Hospitality where I learned the techniques and culture of working in restaurants, kitchens, and hotels. That has been my focus for the past couple years, but I am interesting in exploring new realms, such as sustainable building, permaculture, wilderness guiding, and so much more.

My skills are centered around cooking, menu planning, guest services, animal care, childcare, and cleaning/organization, but am happy to pour my heart into any work you are willing to teach me.
I am a very thorough, precise worker, and a quick learner!

I am a very passionate yet quiet soul. I am passionate about art, being outdoors, plant-based food, and social justice. In my free time, I love riding my bicycle, cooking with friends, and creating pottery!

Thank you for checking out my profile. :-) I am super stoked to meet some lovely souls along this journey of mine.

Cheers!
Quinlan
