Description
Hello my name is David Lossing, I am excited to join your team! I have 20+ years devoted to "kitchen life", and have risen to the top with out a Culinary degree. I manage crews of people from 5 to 35, and love teaching and problem solving. I have passion for cooking, and learning new skills. Since the age of 18 I have used my culinary skills to travel all over the United States and work while traveling. But this is by no means all I have to offer, I love the outdoors for recreation, from hiking to fishing, to canoeing and kayaking. I have limited skills in wood working, and gardening, but would love to increase on that knowledge. There is something to be said for building something with your hands.
