Briefly describe the program, volunteer work, or partnerships you or your organization may offer.
I believe I would be an effective tutor for many subjects at the elementary, middle and basic high school level, whether one to one or in small groups. My greatest skill level is in cooking and food service, having been a career chef, restaurant owner and Executive Chef locally at Fort Worden. I could envision making myself available for questions and advice on a regular walk-in basis or develop some basic skills tutoring. I would be happy to help with student fundraising efforts that involve food. In general I am willing to help in just about any context if called upon.
