About Curt
I have always loved to teach. Even in elementary and middle school, I enjoyed explaining concepts to classmates, and helping those around me who needed it. In culinary school, I discovered that combining my passion for food and my love of teaching was the ideal situation for me.
I am a culinary school graduate, and a former live-in private chef. I have worked as a tutor for children in math and science, and have also taught adult education courses at the local community college.

New students tend to have to conquer the first hurdle, which is, believing in themselves. Many people think cooking is some magical gift, but it's simply a skill that can be taught and learned. New students need patients, explicit instructions, and encouragement!
I have worked with students of all ages and levels, from children to adults.
Look for a teacher who understands that everyone has different skills. A teacher who is flexible, and knows different methods of teaching will be able to reach any student. Also, look for teachers who teach skills, and not just recipes. Once a student familiarizes themselves with a variety of cooking methods, they can replicate any recipe.
I recently taught my mother how to bake bread. On a recent visit back home, we spent two weeks making different bread recipes. I taught her how to fold the dough, and shape it, and how to bake it using water in the oven to make steam and create a crispy crust. My favorite part, of course, was the time we spent together.
A few things worth thinking about before reaching out
Students should have at the very least a basic idea of the skills they want to learn. Or, gather a few recipes they would like to learn, and the instructor can teach the skills to go along with recipes.

My introduction to Chef Curt’s cooking genius was over ten years ago. She would whip up creations from whichever awesome ingredients she found at the farmers market. I still reminisce about the first time I tried her homemade tomato sauce. In addition to sampling many of her delicious meals I’ve learned many tips, tricks and recipes over the years to improve my own amateur cooking game. Her culinary skill and impeccable sense of humor make her lessons a “must do” for anyone looking to learn and have a great time!
She is amazing. I bought new knives because she taught me how essential they are to good cooking. Her food is great.
I was able to sample and enjoy her fresh french bread and delicious pastries. They were each very professionally prepared and satisfying. She has a flare for cooking and puts her heart and soul in every dish she dishes up. I highly recommend this talented cook and feel certain you will enjoy her cooking.
Chef Curt knows food and she knows food prep! Her dishes looked like artistic masterpieces, AND tasted spectacular. I'm an experienced cook, I was surprised there was something else I could learn; with Chef Curt I did!
Chef Curt can make just about anything, and the possibilities are as extensive as your imagination. Whatever you ask of her, she will deliver, in style, with the utmost professionalism. I've experienced a myriad of food she has prepared, and everything always tastes great. What I appreciate most about Chef Curt is how meticulous she is in her process of food preparation, cooking and serving and how she involves her clients in every step of the process. She has a trained pallet and will teach you food pairing and what will and won't work. She is thorough and will even give you a history lesson on origins of the food and how it relates to cultures around the world. She's not merely a chef but an experience. I recommend her services to all, without any reservations.
Curt makes delicious food and cracks me up with laughter while doing it!
Chef Curt has an expansive knowledge of foods and cookery that enriches every lesson. With her, you'll learn everything from knife skills to saucing to the perfect sear. I went from barely being able to scramble an egg to prepping multi-course meals!

Chef Curt is a bubbling fountain of knowledge that comes from a deep well of learning and experience. She so clearly loves what she does, her joy and enthusiasm for food just fills the room. With her knowledge and expertise in everything from food cultivation and production to culinary history and ecosystems to technique to food science, you walk away with so much more than just delicious food. Cooking with Chef Curt is a rich and rewarding experience all around.
She is very talented and has creative spins on traditional dishes. I have learned a lot techniques and tips which have helped me become a better cook! She is very encouraging and patient. I highly recommend her services.
I have had an amazing time working with Chef Curt - from creative and delicious recipes to menu creation and food prep delegation. A most memorable series of meals included seasoned and rubbed ribs alongside a bunch of grilled vegetables. Highly recommend hiring Chef Curt!
Curt was our family's personal chef for 3 years, making breakfast, lunch and dinner for us daily during the week. Curt worked around me and my husband's specialized diets paying special attention to how certain foods made us feel. We're elderly and trying to eat healthy which means lean meals without a lot of fat. Curt's meals were not only delicious, I can honestly say Curt helped make sticking to a diet a breeze.
Chef Curt is the consummate professional. Knowledgeable, a great speaker, an even better chef, and funny as hell!
Events! Cooking Classes! Personal Chef! Curt does it all. Curt worked with me on a three part farm to table dinner series. Designed a wonderful menu using locally sourced ingredients. Curt delivered really beautiful and tasty results!
It's evident Chef Curt enjoys what she does, you can taste it in every bite she prepares.
Chef Curt is so fun to work with! She is hilarious and very skilled in the kitchen. She taught me how to make seafood paella, and even helped me over the phone when I made it again later!
