About

I have been in the food industry for 20 years, but teaching isn't just cooking, it is personal. I started teaching when I had children of my own...and realized that not everyone can really fill a personal need. Trusting someone to lead you by example means they need to be a good example. I love see people become empowered with their cooking skills.

I have witnessed firsthand Stephanie's vibrant personality and the positive and upbeat way in which she teaches and shares her cooking knowledge with her classes as well as on a personal level. I have taken personal cooking classes from Stephanie, worked alongside her in some very intense presentation situations, and been witness to her genius as she conducts a cooking class for over 50 people. She has a dynamic personality and a contagious giggle - and a flair for culinary genius. She has a way of breaking down the most complex recipie into simple steps that almost anyone can follow.

Stephanie, aka Chef Tess has become a very popular repeat instructor for my clients. I have hosted 4 events with Stephanie as our instructor to teach clients cost saving kitchen skills and home production. She is on time, well organized, creative, and a problem solver! Have a strange space? She'll figure out how to use it. She is very willing and able to work with the needs of the group to ensure successful classes each time. The first class Stephanie taught, I had 5 sign ups, the most recent one had 23. (that was only the 3rd class. Word spreads that the Chef Tess classes are a great event!)

Energetic, bubbly and that's only the beginning. Easy instructions and she's open to interaction with her class. Sometimes her classes are hands on. When she has her kids classes she makes it easy for kids to understand and follow. Love her classes and cookbooks. Can't wait till her next class here in CA.

I love attending Chef Tess classes! She is fun and bubbly and I always learn something new. She is a wealth of information. Don't forget to check out her website also and you can even order baked goods (yum) if you want really fresh and oh so good treats!

I took Stephanie's class, Meals In A Jar, and a baking bread class a couple of years ago. I learned a lot. She's funny and bubbling over with joy. She's professional, yet humble. She always seems to say the right thing no matter what situation may arise. Who doesn't love some one that makes them laugh and feel good? She goes beyond her responsibility and is a very giving person.

FAQs

What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have a degree in culinary arts and restaurant management and have been a chef for 20 years. I have four nationally published cookbooks.

Ironically, it wasn't until I had children that I decided to become an instructor. It fit my family's lifestyle and being able to control my own schedule is very important. Baking and cooking have long been a passion of mine, but seeing people learn to take-on a new skill has been powerful beyond words!
What types of customers have you worked with?
Most commonly I teach basic baking, cooking, and grilling with a lot of folks who want to eat healthy and live better.
