About Lori

 Hi. I'm Lori. I'm the sole proprietor of Personal Chef, LLC.

Welcome to the fifth year of my business. I have done many public appearances since 2002 and will continue to do so this year. Check my events page for the most recent info.

Thanks to everyone willing to try a personal chef service in the Capital District, my business is really taking off. It's all because of the people who are willing to try a new way to eat healthier at a reasonable cost and allow themselves the luxury of having custom meals prepared for them in their homes. I love creating a magical experience for all my clients, so let me know if you're willing to be treated like a king or queen!

People often ask me where I received my culinary training. I do give a serious answer (see next paragraph), but I have to say I am always amused. I worked for over 15 years as a technical writer/web programmer and probably not even a handful of people ever asked me where I received my schooling. Oh, I understand. Food is a lot more personal than a software manual you're never going to read! ;)

Anyway, I have taken courses at Schenectady County Community College culinary school. I am a member of the United States Personal Chef Association (USPCA) and have earned a United States Personal Chef Institute (USPCI) Personal Chef Certificate.

I am also on the paid staff of the Honest Weight Food Co-op in Albany. I cook there 16 hours every other weekend in the deli, and fill in when people are out, so stop by and say hello.

Other items to note:

If for some reason you want to know about my past work (I call it "ancient history," at this point), check out my old portfolio. I do some volunteer technical writing and web work once in a while! (For some reason, getting paid makes it too tedious.) I do a bunch of other stuff too. If I'm not in motion, I'm probably asleep.
