About Chef Vicky Colas:

A Culinary Executive Chef, Entrepreneur, and Nutritionist with over 10 + years of experience in the Hospitality Restaurant Management industry. Vicky’s experience includes professional cooking and kitchen management, culinary and nutrition education, teaching, developing curriculum, and entrepreneurial administration.

The granddaughter of self-taught entrepreneurs and rum distillers, Chef Vicky grew up on a family compound in Haiti that shared the same land as the family rum distillery. Sunday dinners were grand feasts at home. The meals were prepared from her family’s organic garden, and meats farmed nearby. This shaped who she is today.

Chef Vicky faces each challenge and finds inspiration from the moment she wakes up. In her own words,
“I get up in the morning and:

• I think about how I can make an impact through my God-given talent,
• I seek to share knowledge and resources that will make a difference in people’s lives through that God-given talent,
• I ensure that everything I associate myself with falls in line with my purpose, and
• I strive to put a smile on people’s faces and bring people together through my food.”
